EXAMPLES: - You want to calculate how much a mortgage payment would be on a $200,000 mortgage at 6% interest for 360 months (30 years), you would enter:
- 200000 (or 200,000) = Loan Amount
- 360 = Months
- 6 = Interest Rate (Compounded Monthly)
- Press the Payment button, and you'll see that your monthly payment would be $1,199.10.
- Note: If you look down the amortization schedule, you'll see the final payment is $1,200.13. Some lenders don't like the final payment to be greater than the regular payment so they'll add a penny to the regular payment. You can do that on this calculator simply by adding a penny to the payment and solving for "Months". The # of months won't change much, if at all. Now you can view the schedule again to see the difference it makes. In this case, you'll make 359 full payments of $1,199.11 and a final payment of $1,190.29.
- Using the example above, let's say you can make a higher monthly payment. You would like to round your payment up to $1200/month. How long will it take to pay off your mortgage?
- Leave everything the same, just enter 1200 for Payment and press Months.
- It will take 360 months to pay off your mortgage! (359 full payments of $1,200 and a final payment of only $296.80)
- Suppose you want to buy a car, but you don't want to spend more than $350/month for payments. You can get a 4 year car loan at 5.99%. How much of a car can you buy? You would enter:
- 48 = Months
- 5.99 = Interest Rate (compounded Monthly)
- 350 = Monthly Payment
- Press the Principal button, and you will see that you could buy a $14,906.02 car with no down payment -or put more money down on a more expensive car.
