Formula Used
The calculator uses the following formula to calculate your monthly payment:
Monthly 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 on both the original principal and the interest accumulated over the life of the loan.
Worked Example
Let's calculate a sample auto loan:
Example Calculation
Loan Amount: PHP 1,000,000
Annual Interest Rate: 10%
Loan Term: 5 years
Monthly Payment: PHP 21,964.48
Total Interest Paid: PHP 357,836.80
Total Repayment Amount: PHP 1,357,836.80
This example shows that for a PHP 1,000,000 loan at 10% interest over 5 years, you would pay approximately PHP 21,964.48 per month, with a total interest payment of PHP 357,836.80.
