Formula Used
The calculator uses the standard auto 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 ÷ 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 loan with these parameters:
- Loan amount: $25,000
- Loan term: 5 years
- Interest rate: 4.5% APR
The monthly payment would be calculated as:
Monthly interest rate = 4.5% ÷ 12 = 0.375% or 0.00375
Number of payments = 5 × 12 = 60
Monthly Payment = $25,000 × [0.00375(1 + 0.00375)^60] / [(1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1]
Monthly Payment ≈ $452.36
Over 5 years, you would pay a total of $27,141.60 with $2,141.60 in interest.
