Formula Used
Monthly Payment Formula
The monthly payment (P) 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 divided by 12)
- n = Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)
This formula uses the standard amortization method to calculate your monthly payments.
Worked Example
Let's calculate a loan with these terms:
- Loan amount: $25,000
- Loan term: 5 years
- Annual interest rate: 6%
Monthly interest rate = 6% ÷ 12 = 0.5%
Number of payments = 5 × 12 = 60
Using the formula:
P = ($25,000 × 0.005 × (1.005)^60) / ((1.005)^60 - 1)
P ≈ $478.50 per month
Total interest paid = $478.50 × 60 - $25,000 = $1,330
Total amount paid = $25,000 + $1,330 = $26,330
