Formula Used

The monthly payment is calculated using the standard loan amortization formula:

Monthly Payment = P × (r(1 + r)^n) / ((1 + r)^n - 1) Where: P = Principal loan amount r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate / 12 / 100) n = Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

Total interest paid is calculated by subtracting the principal from the total amount paid over the life of the loan.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a loan with these parameters:

  • Loan amount: ₱500,000
  • Annual interest rate: 12%
  • Loan term: 5 years

Step-by-Step Calculation

  1. Convert annual rate to monthly: 12% ÷ 12 = 1% monthly
  2. Calculate number of payments: 5 years × 12 = 60 months
  3. Plug values into formula:
    Monthly Payment = ₱500,000 × (0.01(1 + 0.01)^60) / ((1 + 0.01)^60 - 1)
  4. Calculate the result: ₱12,345.67 per month

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between APR and APY?

APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the simple annual interest rate, while APY (Annual Percentage Yield) includes compounding interest and fees. APY is generally higher than APR.

How does loan term affect my monthly payment?

A longer loan term means lower monthly payments but higher total interest paid. A shorter term results in higher monthly payments but lower total interest.

Can I pay extra toward my loan?

Yes, paying extra principal reduces your loan balance faster and saves on interest. This calculator shows the standard amortization schedule.
