DFI-WCA 1.06 DFI-WCA 1.06 General definitions; customer. A person seeks or acquires real or personal property, services, money or credit for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes within the meaning of s. 421.301 (17), Stats., when such real or personal property, services, money or credit is to be used primarily, that is 50% or more, for one or more of these purposes.

DFI-WCA 1.07 DFI-WCA 1.07 General definitions; finance charge. A delinquency or default charge is not a finance charge within the meaning of s. 421.301 (20), Stats., if imposed for actual unanticipated late payment, delinquency, default or other such occurrence. However, when a merchant’s billings are not paid in full within a stipulated time period and under such circumstances the merchant does not, in fact, regard such accounts in default (For example, by customarily failing to institute collection activity or by continuing to extend credit) and imposes charges periodically for delaying payment of such accounts from time to time until paid, the charge so imposed comes within the definition of a finance charge and the credit so extended comes within the definition of open-end credit.

DFI-WCA 1.08 DFI-WCA 1.08 General definitions; official fees. Official fees within the meaning of s. 421.301 (26) (a), Stats., shall include any fee charged by a register of deeds or the secretary of state for the filing or recording of any instrument of conveyance or other document for the purpose of perfecting a security interest for which the parties have contracted.

DFI-WCA 1.09 DFI-WCA 1.09 General definitions; required deposit balance. The definition of “required deposit balance” in s. 421.301 (38), Stats., together with the definition of “amount financed” requires that the required deposit balance be deducted from the amount financed for the purpose of calculating the finance charge and making disclosures. The purpose is to accurately disclose to the customer the amount of funds or credit of which he or she will have actual use, and thus the creditor is required to deduct from the funds advanced any compensating balance the creditor requires to be maintained with him or her. Consequently, the term does not apply to a deposit balance or deposit investment maintained by the customer with a financial institution other than the creditor, which is taken by the creditor as collateral for the advance made. The reference to “any investment” refers to deposit-type investments such as “share accounts” maintained with savings and loan associations, credit unions or mutual savings banks. The term “investment” in s. 421.301 (38), Stats., does not include investment securities of the type defined in ch. 408, Stats.

DFI-WCA 1.201 DFI-WCA 1.201 Finance charge for consumer credit transactions; per diem charge. Charges under s. 422.201, Stats., on consumer transactions other than those pursuant to an open-end plan where the finance charge is computed on the declining unpaid principal balance from time to time outstanding may be computed on actual unpaid balances at 1/360th of the annual rate for the actual number of days outstanding provided the use of this method shall be disclosed conspicuously together with all other disclosures required by subch. III of ch. 422, Stats., and provided the finance charge obtained by the application of this method does not exceed the maximum charge permissible under the act.

DFI-WCA 1.22 DFI-WCA 1.22 Finance charge for consumer credit transactions; credit cards and coupon books. With respect to a consumer credit transaction involving the receipt or acceptance by a customer of any credit card, plate, merchandise certificate, letter of credit, coupon book or other like credit device, except gift certificates purchased by a customer for use by a person other than the customer, the unpaid balance in such transaction within the meaning of s. 422.201, Stats., shall include only the cash value of any money, property, labor or services, not including the credit device itself, acquired by the actual use or redemption of such credit device together with authorized additional charges. For example, where a customer receives a coupon book or several merchandise certificates in the amount of $200 and subsequently redeems one coupon or certificate in the amount of $25, the customer’s unpaid balance upon which a finance charge may be assessed is limited to the $25 cash value of the goods or services which the customer has actually received. This rule shall not apply to merchandise certificates acquired by a customer pursuant to an open-end plan if:

DFI-WCA 1.22(1) (1) Acquisition of certificates is not a condition of the extension of credit to the customer,

DFI-WCA 1.22(2) (2) Unused certificates may be returned at any time for full credit to the customer’s account,

DFI-WCA 1.22(3) (3) The acquisition cost is not billed to the customer for at least one month, and does not bear a finance charge for a minimum period of 2 months, after the certificate is acquired, and

DFI-WCA 1.22(4) (4) The customer is given notice, at least 15 days prior to the imposition of a finance charge, of the date by which any unused certificates must be returned to avoid imposition of finance charges on the price thereof.

DFI-WCA 1.221 DFI-WCA 1.221 Finance charge for consumer credit transactions; actuarial method-compounding. The term “actuarial method” as used in s. 422.201, Stats., shall mean the method by which that portion of each payment not applicable to an escrow account is applied first to any finance charge or permitted additional charge accrued from the time of any prior payment or from the time credit is extended and the remainder, if any, is applied to the unpaid amount financed. With the exception of the calculation of delinquency charges, amounts remitted may be applied to interest and charges and then to principal on the most delinquent installment due and then to interest and charges on the next installment proceeding to more current instalments until the amount remitted is exhausted. For purposes of computing the finance charge under s. 422.201 (10m), Stats., a merchant may calculate the finance charge on an unpaid balance which includes unpaid finance charges.

DFI-WCA 1.23 DFI-WCA 1.23 Maximum charges; precision and rounding. When preparing charts and tables, programming electronic devices or performing numerical calculations in connection with ss. 422.201, 422.204, and 422.209, Stats., any number of decimal places may be used to express the multiplying factor, provided that such factor shall be carried out at least to the nearest ten-thousandth or if expressed as a percent to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent. Where the number of decimal places used exceeds the minimum, the final digit may be rounded. In any case, the same multiplier must be used consistently with regard to all calculations in the transaction, including computation of interest, deferrals or rebates. Where the multiplier complies with this rule, the final product may be rounded to the nearest cent provided that products of 5 mills and over shall be rounded upward.

Disclosure of the cost of insurance as an additional charge under s. 422.202 (1) (b) and (c), Stats., must include written notice to the customer of the term of such insurance together with the dollar charge for such term.
