Formula Used

The monthly payment for a loan is calculated using the standard loan 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 / 12) n = Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

This formula accounts for the fact that each payment includes both principal and interest, with the interest portion decreasing over time as the principal balance is paid down.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a $200,000 loan with a 5-year term and 4.5% annual interest rate:

Principal (P) = $200,000
Annual interest rate = 4.5% or 0.045
Monthly interest rate (i) = 0.045 / 12 ≈ 0.00375
Number of payments (n) = 5 × 12 = 60
Plugging into the formula:
M = 200000 [ 0.00375(1 + 0.00375)^60 ] / [ (1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1 ] ≈ $4,165.50

Your estimated monthly payment would be $4,165.50, with a total of $249,930 paid over the life of the loan, including $49,930 in interest.

Interpreting Results

When you use this calculator, you'll see several key results:

Monthly Payment: The amount you'll pay each month
Total Interest: The total amount of interest you'll pay over the life of the loan
Total Amount Repaid: The sum of your principal and total interest

Comparing these numbers with different loan terms and interest rates can help you make informed decisions about your borrowing.
