What is a Loan Calculator?

A loan calculator helps you determine your monthly payment, total interest, and complete repayment schedule for any type of loan — personal, business, student, or otherwise.

Loan Payment Formula

Monthly Payment = P × r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n - 1) where P = loan principal, r = monthly interest rate, and n = number of monthly payments.

Understanding Amortization

With each payment, a portion goes toward interest and the remainder reduces the principal. In the early months, most of your payment goes toward interest. Over time, more of each payment goes toward paying down the principal.

Tips to Pay Off a Loan Faster

Making small additional payments toward the principal can significantly reduce your total interest and loan term. Always check if your loan has a prepayment penalty before making extra payments.
