What Is a Loan Calculator?

A Loan Calculator is an online tool that estimates the regular payment required to repay a loan based on the loan amount, interest rate, and repayment period.

It can help you understand how much you may pay over the life of a loan and how much of the repayment may represent interest.

How Does the Loan Calculator Work?

For a standard fixed-rate amortizing loan, the calculator converts the annual interest rate into a monthly rate and calculates the payment required to repay the balance over the selected number of months.

Loan Payment Formula

Payment = P × r × (1 + r)n ÷ ((1 + r)n − 1)

P = Principal amount
r = Monthly interest rate
n = Number of monthly payments

Example Loan Calculation

Suppose you borrow $25,000 at an annual interest rate of 7.5% for 5 years. Enter those values above and the calculator will estimate the monthly payment, total interest, and total loan cost.

Important: Results are estimates for a standard fixed-rate amortizing loan. Actual lender payments may differ because of fees, taxes, insurance, payment frequency, variable rates, penalties, or other loan terms.
