About the Loan Amortization Calculator
What Is Loan Amortization?
Loan amortization is the process of gradually paying down a loan through scheduled payments. Each payment generally includes an interest portion and a principal portion, with the remaining loan balance decreasing over time.
What Is an Amortization Schedule?
An amortization schedule is a detailed breakdown of scheduled loan payments. It can show the payment amount, interest paid, principal paid, and remaining balance for each payment period.
Why Use a Loan Amortization Calculator?
A loan amortization calculator can help you understand the cost of borrowing and compare different combinations of loan amounts, interest rates, and repayment terms.
How the Loan Amortization Calculator Works
Enter the principal amount, annual interest rate, and repayment period. The calculator uses these inputs to estimate the periodic payment and generate an amortization breakdown.
Principal vs. Interest
Early payments on many amortizing loans contain a larger interest portion relative to principal. As the balance decreases, a greater portion of each scheduled payment may go toward principal, depending on the loan structure.
