Float rate_of_pay  a declaration for a variable rate_of_pay that can hold values like 11.50 or 12.75.

What is   float rate_of_pay?

  • In contrast to fixed (or unchangeable) interest rates, floating interest rates change on a regular basis. Companies that offer credit cards and mortgages frequently use floating rates.
  • Floating rates follow the market, a benchmark interest rate, an index, or both.

Is a fixed or floating rate preferable?

  • In a rising rate environment, banks offer fixed rate loans at a higher rate than variable rate loans in order to profit more from the latter when rates rise.
  • Fixed rate loans may have interest rates that are 300–350 basis points higher than floating rate loans.
