Formula Used
The monthly payment for a commercial mortgage is calculated using the standard mortgage formula:
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)
The total interest paid is calculated by multiplying the monthly payment by the number of payments and subtracting the principal loan amount.
Worked Example
Let's calculate a commercial mortgage with the following parameters:
- Loan amount: $500,000
- Annual interest rate: 5.5%
- Loan term: 30 years
Using the formula:
Calculation Steps
1. Convert annual rate to monthly: 5.5% ÷ 12 = 0.4583% or 0.004583
2. Calculate number of payments: 30 years × 12 = 360 payments
3. Plug values into formula:
M = $500,000 [0.004583(1 + 0.004583)360] / [(1 + 0.004583)360 - 1]
4. Calculate monthly payment: $500,000 × 0.005799 = $2,899.50
5. Total interest paid: ($2,899.50 × 360) - $500,000 = $359,860
The monthly payment for this loan would be approximately $2,899.50, with a total interest payment of $359,860 over 30 years.
