There are fields within DDI Connect that reference the weighted interest rate. Below is the method used for calculating that number.


  • Multiply each investment or loan by the interest rate. This gives you the per loan/per investment weight factor
  • Add weight factors together
  • Total your investment or loan amounts
  • Divide the weight factor total by the investment or loan amount total, and multiply the result by 100. This will give you the weighted average interest rate


For example, you have an investment of $15,000 at 2.25% and another of $20,000 at 3%

  • Multiply 15000 x 2.25% to = 337.5
  • Multiple 20000 x 3% to = 600
  • Add 600 to 337.5 to = 937.5
  • Add $15,000 to $20,000 to = $35,000
  • Divide 937.5 by 35000 to = .027
  • Multiply that by 100 to get 2.7


2.7 will be your weighted investment interest rate
