Frequently asked questions

How does this differ from a mortgage or auto loan calculator? It uses the same generic fixed-rate amortization formula but without asset-specific extras like insurance premiums, down payments, or fees, making it suited to any simple fixed-rate loan rather than a specific loan type.

Why does a longer loan term reduce the monthly payment but increase total interest? Spreading the same principal over more months lowers each payment, but the balance stays outstanding — and accruing interest — for longer, so total interest paid over the full term rises even though the monthly amount drops.
