1. What is the Loan Payment Formula?

The loan payment formula calculates fixed monthly payments for amortizing loans where payments are equal throughout the term. This is standard for UK personal loans including those from Lloyds Bank.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the loan payment formula:

\[ PMT = P \times \frac{r \times (1 + r)^n}{(1 + r)^n - 1} \]

Where:

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

Explanation: The formula accounts for compound interest over the loan term, distributing payments equally while the principal/interest ratio changes each month.

3. Importance of Loan Calculation

Details: Understanding your monthly payment helps budget effectively and compare loan offers. Lloyds Bank typically offers personal loans from £1,000 to £50,000 with terms from 1 to 7 years.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter loan amount in GBP, annual interest rate (Lloyds rates vary by creditworthiness), and term in months (12 = 1 year, 60 = 5 years).
