Payment Plan Math in Delaware

In Delaware, the maximum interest rate a payment plan may charge is set by 6 Del. C. § 2301. This statute caps the legal rate at 5% per annum on any unpaid balance, unless the parties have agreed in writing to a different rate permitted under other applicable law. The court applies this figure to the principal amount owed over the duration of the plan, though the law provides exceptions for certain written agreements. The official source details how these provisions interact with other state lending rules. For a specific payment plan estimate, the DocketMath calculator applies the verified statutory rate directly to the user’s entered principal and term.
