Formula Used

The mortgage payment is calculated using the standard formula for amortized loans:

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 (loan term in years multiplied by 12)

This formula accounts for the interest you'll pay over the life of the loan and ensures your payments are structured to pay off the loan on time.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a mortgage payment for a $250,000 loan with a 4.5% annual interest rate and a 25-year amortization period.

Example Calculation

Monthly interest rate = 4.5% / 12 = 0.375% or 0.00375

Number of payments = 25 years × 12 = 300 payments

Using the formula:

M = $250,000 [ 0.00375(1 + 0.00375)³⁰⁰ ] / [ (1 + 0.00375)³⁰⁰ - 1 ]

Calculated monthly payment = $1,421.67

For this example, your monthly payment would be approximately $1,421.67. The calculator will provide this exact calculation when you enter these values.
