The formula to estimate interest charges on a loan includes the risk-free rate, which is the base rate for borrowing with no risk of default. To this, the expected loss due to default (calculated as Probability of Default x Loss Given Default) and a spread to cover additional costs and profit margins are added. This comprehensive formula accounts for the risk and return expectations in lending.
