How to Use This Calculator

The calculator will show you your estimated monthly payment, total interest paid over the life of the loan, and a breakdown of how your payments are allocated between principal and interest.
Formula Used
The calculator uses the standard mortgage payment formula:
M = P [ i(1 + i)n ] / [ (1 + i)n - 1 ]
Where:
- M = Monthly payment
- P = Principal loan amount
- i = Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12)
- n = Number of payments (amortization period in years × 12)
This formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to fully amortize the loan over the specified term.
Worked Example
Let's calculate a mortgage for $300,000 at 5% interest over 25 years:
- Principal (P) = $300,000
- Annual interest rate = 5% (0.05)
- Monthly interest rate (i) = 0.05 / 12 ≈ 0.004167
- Number of payments (n) = 25 × 12 = 300
Plugging these into the formula:
M = 300,000 [ 0.004167(1 + 0.004167)300 ] / [ (1 + 0.004167)300 - 1 ]
M ≈ $1,799.67 per month
Over 25 years, you would pay approximately $1,799.67 per month, with a total interest payment of about $479,890.
