FAQ
How is the monthly loan payment calculated?+

The calculator uses the standard amortisation formula: M = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n − 1], where P is the principal, r is the monthly interest rate (APR ÷ 12 ÷ 100), and n is the total number of monthly payments. If your APR is 0%, it simply divides the principal by the number of months.

What is the difference between total paid and total interest?+

Total paid is every dollar you send to the lender over the life of the loan (monthly payment × number of months). Total interest is total paid minus the original principal — the extra cost of borrowing the money.

Does the calculator include taxes, insurance, or fees?+

No. The results reflect a fixed-rate, fully-amortising loan with no additional charges. For a mortgage, your actual monthly outlay may be higher once property tax, homeowner's insurance, and PMI are factored in.

How do I use the amortisation schedule?+

Click 'Show Amortisation Schedule' after entering your loan details. For terms longer than 24 months the table groups payments by year, showing how much of each year's payments go toward principal vs. interest and what the remaining balance is.
