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 (APR/12/100) n = Number of payments (Term in years × 12)

Total interest paid is calculated as:

Total Interest = (M × n) - P

Worked Example

Let's calculate a $200,000 loan at 4.5% APR for 30 years:

  1. Monthly interest rate = 4.5%/12 = 0.00375
  2. Number of payments = 30 × 12 = 360
  3. Monthly payment = $200,000 [0.00375(1.00375)^360] / [(1.00375)^360 - 1] ≈ $1,073.64
  4. Total interest paid = ($1,073.64 × 360) - $200,000 ≈ $174,090.40

This example shows you'll pay approximately $1,073.64 per month with $174,090.40 in total interest over 30 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between APR and interest rate?

APR (Annual Percentage Rate) includes all fees and costs associated with the loan, while the interest rate is the cost of borrowing without fees. APR is always higher than the interest rate.

How does loan term affect my monthly payment?

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

What is the difference between fixed and adjustable rate loans?

Fixed rate loans have the same interest rate for the entire term, while adjustable rate loans start with a fixed rate that changes periodically. Fixed rate loans are generally more predictable.
