How It Works
Our calculator uses the standard amortization formula used by banks and financial institutions worldwide. The formula takes into account your loan amount (principal), interest rate, and loan term to calculate your monthly payment and create a complete payment schedule.
The Math Behind It
Monthly Payment = P[r(1+r)^n]/[(1+r)^n-1]
- P = Principal loan amount
- r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
- n = Total number of payments (years × 12)
