Reference calculation using equal monthly payments.
Guide / 02
Quick guide
- Enter the principal, nominal annual rate, and full term in months.
- Review the monthly payment, interest across the term, and total paid.
- Compare the same assumptions with a lender quote, including its fees, insurance, and repayment structure, before budgeting.
CHECK
Validate the result
Set the rate to zero; monthly payment should equal principal divided by months and total interest should be zero.
LIMITS
Know the limits
This is a reference for fixed-rate equal monthly payments. Variable rates, grace periods, prepayments, daily accrual, fees, guarantees, and insurance are excluded, so it is not a lender quote.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Will dividing the annual rate by 12 always match a bank's interest calculation?
