Understanding Loan Payments
Loan payments are typically composed of principal and interest. The principal is the amount borrowed, and the interest is the cost of borrowing that money. Over the life of the loan, payments are made periodically (usually monthly) until the loan is fully repaid.
Key Components of the Payment Calculator
The Payment Calculator helps estimate the following components:
Interest Rate: The percentage charged on the loan amount. It can be fixed or variable.
Loan Term: The duration over which the loan will be repaid, usually expressed in years or months.
Monthly Payment: The amount you need to pay each month to fully repay the loan within the specified term.
Additional Features
Extra Payments: Calculate the impact of making additional payments or paying off the loan early, which can reduce the total interest paid and shorten the loan term.
Interest Type: Choose between different types of interest calculations (e.g., simple or compound) to see how they affect your monthly payments.
Total Interest Paid: Calculate the total interest paid over the life of the loan based on the monthly payments and loan term.
Benefits of Using the Payment Calculator
