How It Works

This calculator uses the standard amortization formula: M = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n - 1], where M is monthly payment, P is principal, r is monthly interest rate, and n is number of payments. Each payment includes both principal and interest, with early payments being mostly interest.

All calculations happen locally in your browser. This is for estimation purposes only — actual loan terms may vary.
