Formula Used

The monthly payment for a car loan is calculated using the standard loan 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)

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

Worked Example

Let's calculate a car loan with the following details:

  • Loan amount: €30,000
  • Annual interest rate: 4.5%
  • Loan term: 5 years

Using the formula:

Monthly interest rate = 4.5% ÷ 12 = 0.375% or 0.00375

Number of payments = 5 × 12 = 60

Monthly Payment = €30,000 × (0.00375(1 + 0.00375)^60) / ((1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1)

Monthly Payment ≈ €558.33

Total repayment = €558.33 × 60 ≈ €33,500

Total interest = €33,500 - €30,000 = €3,500

This example shows that for a €30,000 loan at 4.5% interest over 5 years, you would pay approximately €558.33 per month, with a total interest of €3,500.
