This calculator uses the standard amortization formula to project every monthly payment, splitting it into principal and interest until the balance reaches zero.
Monthly payment uses the standard amortizing-loan formula: P × r / (1 − (1 + r)⁻ⁿ), where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly interest rate, and n is the number of monthly payments.
Amortization is the schedule that breaks each payment into principal and interest. Early payments are mostly interest; later payments are mostly principal.
Yes. Any extra you pay reduces the principal immediately, which reduces all future interest. Even small extra payments can shave years off a long loan.
Unless the calculator has dedicated fields for tax and insurance, the result is the pure principal-and-interest payment. Add escrow items separately for the full housing cost.
Not quite. The interest rate determines the monthly payment, while APR also includes most lender fees, so APR is usually slightly higher than the note rate.
