Worked Example

Let's walk through an example calculation:

Suppose you're considering a $25,000 loan with a 4.5% annual interest rate for 5 years (60 months).

1. Convert the annual rate to a monthly rate: 4.5% ÷ 12 = 0.375% or 0.00375 in decimal form.
2. Calculate the monthly payment using the formula:

   M = $25,000 [ 0.00375(1 + 0.00375)^60 ] / [ (1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1 ]

   M ≈ $465.24

3. Total interest paid over the life of the loan: $25,000 × 60 - $25,000 = $15,314.40

This example shows that with a $25,000 loan at 4.5% interest over 5 years, you would pay approximately $465.24 per month with a total interest cost of $15,314.40.
