An inductor including a conductor having a plate thickness is embedded in a core containing magnetic powder. The core includes a mounting surface facing a mounting substrate side at the time of mounting, an upper surface facing the mounting surface, and a pair of end surfaces orthogonal to the mounting surface. The conductor includes a conductive wire extending inside the core over the pair of end surfaces, and a pair of electrode terminals. Each electrode terminal includes an electrode portion at respective end portions of the conductive wire and exposed to the mounting surface, and first and second bent portions having a first bend and second bend, respectively, which are each 2.0 times to 3.0 times the plate thickness. When one of the first and second bends is 2.0 times or more the plate thickness, the other is less than 3.0 times the plate thickness.
