How this loan is calculated

This calculator models a new loan with a fixed interest rate. Each payment covers rounded interest first and then reduces principal. The final payment clears the remaining balance exactly.

Formula and rounding

The payment is P × i ÷ (1 − (1 + i)−n), where i is the nominal annual rate divided by payments per year. At zero interest it is P ÷ n. The regular payment and every interest row are rounded half-up to cents; totals are summed from the schedule.

There are no calendar dates, daily-interest calculations, fees, escrow, penalties or statutory APR calculations.
