Interest
Interest is money paid by a borrower to a
lender for a credit or a similar liability. Important examples are bond yields, interest paid for bank loans, and returns on savings. Interest differs from
profit in that it is paid to a lender, whereas profit is paid to an owner. In economics, the various forms of credit are also referred to as
loanable funds.
