How to Use This Calculator

To use the UnionBank Auto Loan Calculator:

  1. Enter the loan amount you want to borrow (e.g., $25,000).
  2. Input the annual interest rate (e.g., 5.5%).
  3. Select the loan term in years (e.g., 5 years).

The calculator uses the standard auto loan formula to provide an accurate estimate of your monthly payments and total interest costs.

Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formula to calculate your monthly auto loan payment:

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 accounts for the interest you'll pay over the life of the loan, providing an accurate estimate of your monthly obligation.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a monthly payment for a $25,000 loan at 5.5% annual interest over 5 years:

  1. Convert annual rate to monthly: 5.5% ÷ 12 = 0.4583% or 0.004583 in decimal.
  2. Calculate number of payments: 5 years × 12 = 60 payments.
  3. Plug values into formula:

    Monthly Payment = $25,000 × (0.004583(1 + 0.004583)^60) / ((1 + 0.004583)^60 - 1)

    = $25,000 × (0.004583 × 1.297) / (1.297 - 1)

    = $25,000 × (0.00592) / 0.297

    = $25,000 × 0.01993

    = $498.25

Your estimated monthly payment would be $498.25, with a total interest of $1,825 over the loan term.
