Formula Used
The peso loan calculator uses the standard loan payment formula:
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 pay off the loan over the specified term.
Worked Example
Let's calculate a loan with these parameters:
- Loan Amount: ₱500,000
- Loan Term: 5 years
- Annual Interest Rate: 8%
Using the formula:
Calculation Steps
1. Convert annual rate to monthly: 8% ÷ 12 = 0.6667% or 0.006667
2. Calculate number of payments: 5 × 12 = 60
3. Plug values into formula: 500,000 × (0.006667(1 + 0.006667)^60) / ((1 + 0.006667)^60 - 1)
4. Result: ₱11,245.42 per month
Total interest paid: ₱224,822.40
Total repayment: ₱724,822.40
Interpreting Results
The calculator provides several key metrics to help you understand your loan:
- Monthly Payment: The fixed amount you'll pay each month.
- Total Interest: The total amount of interest you'll pay over the life of the loan.
- Total Repayment: The sum of your principal and total interest.
Use the amortization chart to see how your loan balance decreases each month and how much of each payment goes toward interest versus principal.
