Cindy has decided to lease a car. The lease includes a money factor of 0.00354. What interest rate is Cindy being charged in her lease?

To convert a lease money factor to an approximate annual interest rate, multiply it by 2,400. Cindy’s rate is 0.00354 × 2,400 = 8.496%, which rounds to 8.5%. So she is being charged 8.5% interest.
