1. What is the ANZ Personal Loan Payment Formula?

The ANZ personal loan repayment formula calculates fixed monthly payments for a loan with a constant interest rate. It's based on the standard amortization formula used for most personal loans.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the loan payment formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (AUD)
• \( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
• \( n \) — Number of monthly payments
• \( PMT \) — Monthly payment amount (AUD)

Explanation: The formula accounts for both principal repayment and interest charges, with payments remaining constant throughout the loan term.

3. Importance of Loan Payment Calculation

Details: Understanding your monthly payment helps with budgeting and ensures the loan is affordable. It also helps compare different loan options.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the loan amount in AUD, annual interest rate (without % sign), and loan term in months. All values must be positive numbers.
