Multiply the after-tax interest rate of your debt by the principal amount of your debt. The result will be the true annual dollar cost of your debt. For example, if your loan is for $100,000, your interest rate is 5 percent and your after-tax interest rate is 4 percent, $100,000 times 4 percent equals $4,000.
Step 5. Multiply the after-tax interest rate of your debt by the principal amount of your debt. The result will be the true annual dollar cost of your debt. For example, if your loan is for $100,000, your interest rate is 5 percent and your after-tax interest rate is 4 percent, $100,000 times 4 percent equals $4,000.In this scenario, $4,000, not $5,000, is the true annual dollar cost of your debt after taxes.tep 6. Multiply the annual dollar cost of your debt by the number of years of your debt agreement. If your annual dollar cost is $4,000 and you have a loan agreement in place for 10 years, the total cost of your debt will be $4,000 times 10 years, or $40,000.
