Formula Used

The DIB Auto Loan 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 divided by 12)
  • n = Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

Total Interest = (Monthly Payment × n) - P

Total Amount Paid = Monthly Payment × n

Worked Example

Let's calculate an example auto loan:

  • Loan Amount: $25,000
  • Loan Term: 5 years
  • Interest Rate: 4.5%

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 ≈ $452.34

Total Interest = ($452.34 × 60) - $25,000 ≈ $1,120.20

Total Amount Paid = $452.34 × 60 ≈ $26,120.20

This example shows that a $25,000 loan at 4.5% interest over 5 years would result in approximately $452.34 monthly payments, $1,120.20 in total interest, and $26,120.20 total amount paid.
