How it works

Method

Standard amortisation formula: payment = P × r ÷ (1 − (1 + r)^−n), where P is the amount borrowed, r is the annual rate divided by 12 and n is the number of monthly payments. With a 0% rate the payment is simply P ÷ n.

Units

Amounts use the currency configured for this tool. The rate is a nominal annual percentage compounded monthly. The term is in years and is converted to whole months.

Examples

  • 10,000 at 6.5% for 5 years: 195.66 a month, 1,739.69 interest in total.
  • 250,000 at 4% for 30 years: 1,193.54 a month.

Limitations

Assumes a fixed rate and equal monthly payments. Fees, insurance, taxes, payment holidays and rounding rules used by a lender are not included, so a real loan offer can differ.
