Formula Used

The Numerica Auto Loan Calculator uses the standard auto loan payment formula:

M = P [ i(1 + i)^n ] / [ (1 + i)^n - 1 ] Where: M = Monthly payment P = Loan amount i = Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12) n = Number of payments (loan term in years multiplied by 12)

This formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to amortize a loan over a specific term.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a monthly payment for a $25,000 loan at 4.5% annual interest over 5 years.

Example Calculation

Loan Amount: $25,000

Annual Interest Rate: 4.5%

Loan Term: 5 years

Monthly Interest Rate: 4.5% / 12 = 0.375% or 0.00375

Number of Payments: 5 years × 12 = 60

Monthly Payment: $25,000 [ 0.00375(1 + 0.00375)^60 ] / [ (1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1 ]

Monthly Payment ≈ $478.65

In this example, the monthly payment would be approximately $478.65, with a total interest of $3,498.00 and a total amount paid of $28,498.00.
