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

Worked Example

Let's calculate a $25,000 auto 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. Using the formula: P = ($25,000 × 0.00375 × (1.00375)^60) / ((1.00375)^60 - 1)
4. This calculates to approximately $452.32 per month

Your total interest paid would be about $2,714.80, and your total loan cost would be $27,714.80.
