This intelligent finance loan calculator tool helps you easily compute your loan repayments.
How to Use the Loan Calculator
To use the loan calculator, fill in the following fields:
- Loan Amount: The total amount of the loan you need.
- Annual Interest Rate: The annual interest rate on the loan in percentage.
- Loan Term: The number of years you will be repaying the loan.
- Payments per Year: How many payments you will make each year (Monthly payments = 12).
- Down Payment: Any initial payment you will make to reduce the loan amount.
After entering the values, click on the “Calculate” button to see your monthly payment. The result will be displayed in the “Result” field.
How It Calculates the Results
The calculator uses the following formula to calculate the monthly payment:
monthly_payment = (loan_amount * monthly_interest_rate * compounded_interest_rate) / (compounded_interest_rate - 1)
The monthly interest rate is derived from dividing the annual interest rate by the number of payments per year. The number of payments is calculated as the loan term in years multiplied by the number of payments per year. Compounded interest rate is calculated as (1 + monthly_interest_rate)^(number_of_payments).
Limitations
The calculator assumes a fixed interest rate and does not take into account taxes, insurance, or additional fees that may be part of your loan agreement. Ensure all fields are filled with valid numbers to get an accurate result.
