Finance Calculator: a worked example

You are considering a $20,000 loan at 5% APR over 5 years and need the monthly payment and total interest.

Loan

principal $20,000 · 5% APR · 60 monthly payments
Finance Calculator produces

Results

Monthly payment ≈ $377.42
Total paid ≈ $22,645   Total interest ≈ $2,645

It applies the standard amortisation formula (not simple interest), so the payment correctly accounts for the shrinking balance each month, the reason total interest is far less than 5% × $20,000 × 5. An amortisation schedule shows principal vs interest per payment.

  • Investment growth projections with contributions
  • Retirement savings estimator
  • Visual charts for growth and payment breakdowns

Common use cases

  • Mortgage planning

    Compare monthly payments and total interest across different loan terms and rates.

  • Savings goals

    Figure out how much to save monthly to reach a target amount by a specific date.

  • Investment comparison

    Model different return rates and contribution amounts to see long-term outcomes.

  • Student loan analysis

    Generate an amortization schedule to understand how extra payments reduce total interest.

How it works

The compound interest module supports various compounding frequencies (daily, monthly, quarterly, annually) and can factor in regular contributions. Loan amortization generates a full payment schedule showing principal and interest breakdowns for each period. Investment projections model growth with reinvested returns, and retirement planning estimates how long savings will last given a withdrawal rate.

Frequently asked questions

What compounding frequencies are available?

Daily, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually.

Does it account for taxes or inflation?

The projections show nominal returns. Adjust the interest rate downward to approximate real (inflation-adjusted) returns.

Can I include regular deposits in the compound interest calculation?

Yes. Enter a recurring contribution amount and frequency alongside the initial principal.
