FAQ

What formula is used?
Monthly payment = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n − 1], where P = principal, r = monthly rate (annual rate ÷ 12), n = term in months. This is the standard amortisation formula.
Does this include fees or insurance?
No. The calculator gives the pure principal-plus-interest payment. Real-world loans may include processing fees, insurance, or other charges not reflected here.
Can I use it for mortgages?
Yes. Enter the mortgage amount as principal, the annual interest rate, and the term in months (e.g. 360 for a 30-year mortgage). The monthly payment result will match standard mortgage calculators.
