# PAYE Graph

To incentivize borrowers to use liquidity from our ecosystem to generate as high yield as possible, Stella utilizes a model where the higher the annualized yield, the lower amount to be shared to lenders, and only yields from the leveraged portion are used to calculate the cut.

$$
\text{cut} = 0.25 + \frac{0.75}{\left(1+\frac{\text{Yield}\_{\text{APR}}}{0.25}\right)^2}
$$

Below is a graph illustrating the range of share cuts (Y-axis), which can vary from 25% to 100%, based on the yields generated by leveragoors (X-axis). To navigate through the graph, click [here](https://www.desmos.com/calculator/t2uvixzuw5?embed).
