Loan Payment Formula

Monthly Payment = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n – 1]

Where:
• P = Principal loan amount ($)
• r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
• n = Number of monthly payments (loan term in years × 12)

Example Calculation:
$50,000 loan at 7.5% for 5 years (60 months)
r = 7.5% ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.00625
n = 5 × 12 = 60

Monthly Payment = 50000 × [0.00625(1+0.00625)^60] / [(1+0.00625)^60 – 1]
= 50000 × [0.00625 × 1.4533] / [1.4533 – 1]
= 50000 × 0.009083 / 0.4533
= 50000 × 0.02004
= $1,002.31

Understanding Loan Costs

Key Loan Terms

Principal: The original amount borrowed
Interest: Cost of borrowing the money
Annual Percentage Rate (APR): Total cost of loan including fees
Amortization: Process of paying off loan over time

Tip: Even a small difference in interest rate can significantly impact your total repayment amount over the life of the loan.
