The calculator will display your estimated monthly payment, total interest paid, and total amount paid over the life of the loan.

Formula Explained

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 ÷ 100)
n = Number of payments (loan term 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 loan with these parameters:

Loan amount: $25,000
Loan term: 5 years
Annual interest rate: 5%

Using the formula:

Monthly interest rate = 5% ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.0041667

Number of payments = 5 × 12 = 60

Monthly payment = 25000 × (0.0041667(1 + 0.0041667)^60) / ((1 + 0.0041667)^60 - 1)

Monthly payment ≈ $462.38

Total interest paid would be $4,623.80 over the 5-year term.

Interpreting Results

When you see your results, consider these factors:

Monthly Payment: This is your fixed payment each month. Lower payments mean lower interest rates or shorter loan terms.
Total Interest: This shows how much you'll pay in interest over the life of the loan. Shorter terms typically mean lower total interest.
Total Amount Paid: This combines your principal and interest payments. It's important to compare this with your total income to ensure affordability.

Remember that these are estimates. Actual payments may vary based on your lender's specific terms and any additional fees.
