Formula Used

The calculator uses the standard auto loan payment formula:

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 for an auto loan with equal principal and interest payments.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a loan for a car priced at RM 80,000 with a 5-year term and 4.5% annual interest rate.

Example Calculation

Monthly interest rate = 4.5% ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.00375

Number of payments = 5 × 12 = 60

Monthly payment = 80,000 × (0.00375(1 + 0.00375)^60) / ((1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1)

Monthly payment ≈ RM 1,524.32

For this example, your monthly payment would be approximately RM 1,524.32, with a total interest of RM 12,252.00 and total repayment of RM 92,252.00.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between APR and interest rate?

The interest rate is the cost of borrowing, while the APR (Annual Percentage Rate) includes all fees and costs associated with the loan. APR is always higher than the interest rate.

Can I pay extra toward my loan?

Yes, you can make additional payments toward your principal. This will reduce your total interest paid and pay off your loan faster.

What happens if I miss a payment?

Missing a payment can result in late fees and may damage your credit score. It's important to make payments on time to avoid these consequences.
