About this loan amortization & mortgage calculator

Compare level payments and equal principal, export monthly schedules, and compare lower payments with a shorter term after prepayment Computes exact algebraic and numerical metrics directly in your browser using IEEE 754 precision without round-trip latency.

Formula & calculation mechanics

The execution engine processes input tokens and applies transformations in the browser sandbox. Specifically, P is principal, i = annual rate / 1200, n = 12 × years. Level payment = P i / (1 − (1+i)^−n); when i = 0, P/n. Equal principal = P/n per month. Interest = opening balance × i. Amounts are rounded half up to cents using exact integer arithmetic. The last payment clears the remaining balance; rounding can cause an earlier payoff or a larger final adjustment, especially for tiny loans.

Worked numerical calculation

Scenario: Load example

Sample input:

P=1200; annual rate=12%; years=1; equal principal; extra=100 after month 1

Processing: P is principal, i = annual rate / 1200, n = 12 × years. Pay extra immediately after the selected month’s regular payment; month 0 is before interest accrues. Enter 0 to disable. The extra amount cannot exceed the selected plan’s remaining balance. Full payoff is allowed. Lower payments recalculates the installment over the remaining original term; shorter term keeps the original payment, or original principal installment for equal-principal loans.

Illustrative output:

Original interest=78.00; lower payments interest=72.00; shorter term interest=67.00; interest saved=6.00 / 11.00

Domain range & precision boundaries

Fixed rate, whole months and one currency with 2 decimal places. No daily accrual, irregular first/last periods, rate resets, fees, penalties or opportunity cost. Bank contracts and rounding policies can differ; this is a model, not a bank quote or certification. Lower interest alone does not determine the best personal choice. At most 1200 monthly rows per plan; no file upload. Use decimal points, no separators, signs or exponent notation. Principal and extra payment: 0–1000000000, up to 2 decimals. Rate: 0–100%, up to 6 decimals. Years: integer 1–100. Every field is required, at most 64 characters; surrounding spaces and leading zeros are allowed.
