Formula Used

Auto Loan Payment Formula

The monthly payment (P) for an auto loan is calculated using the formula:

P = (A × r × (1 + r)^n) / ((1 + r)^n - 1)

Where:

  • A = Loan amount
  • r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
  • n = Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)

This formula accounts for the interest on the remaining balance each month, providing an accurate estimate of your monthly payments.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a $25,000 loan at 4.5% annual interest for 5 years:

  1. Monthly interest rate = 4.5% ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.00375
  2. Number of payments = 5 × 12 = 60
  3. Monthly payment = (25000 × 0.00375 × (1 + 0.00375)^60) / ((1 + 0.00375)^60 - 1) ≈ $452.34
  4. Total interest = (Monthly payment × 60) - Loan amount = $1,352.20

This example shows that your total cost would be $26,352.20, with $1,352.20 paid in interest.
