Formula Used

The auto loan calculator uses the standard mortgage payment formula:

Monthly Payment = P × [r(1 + r)ⁿ] / [(1 + r)ⁿ - 1]

Where:

P = Principal loan amount
r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12)
n = Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

This formula calculates the fixed monthly payment for a loan with a fixed interest rate.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a monthly payment for a $25,000 loan at 4.5% APR over 5 years:

Principal (P) = $25,000
Annual interest rate = 4.5% or 0.045
Monthly interest rate (r) = 0.045/12 = 0.00375
Loan term in months (n) = 5 × 12 = 60

Monthly Payment = $25,000 × [0.00375(1 + 0.00375)⁶⁰] / [(1 + 0.00375)⁶⁰ - 1]

Monthly Payment ≈ $454.24

Total interest paid over 5 years: $2,244.80

Total amount paid: $27,244.80
