Formula Used

The calculator uses the standard auto loan payment formula:

Monthly Payment Formula

M = P [ i(1 + i)n ] / [ (1 + i)n - 1 ]

Where:

  • M = monthly payment
  • P = principal loan amount ($9,000)
  • i = monthly interest rate (annual rate / 12)
  • n = number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

Total interest is calculated by subtracting the principal from the total amount paid.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a $9,000 loan with these terms:

  • Loan amount: $9,000
  • Loan term: 5 years
  • Annual interest rate: 7.5%

Using the formula:

  1. Convert annual rate to monthly: 7.5% ÷ 12 = 0.625% or 0.00625
  2. Number of payments: 5 × 12 = 60
  3. Plug into formula: M = 9000 [ 0.00625(1 + 0.00625)60 ] / [ (1 + 0.00625)60 - 1 ]
  4. Calculate: M ≈ $185.34 per month
  5. Total amount paid: $185.34 × 60 ≈ $11,120.40
  6. Total interest: $11,120.40 - $9,000 = $2,120.40

This example shows you'll pay approximately $185.34 per month, with a total interest cost of about $2,120.40 over 5 years.
