1. What is the NAB Business Loan Payment Formula?

The NAB Business Loan payment formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to repay a loan over a specified term. It accounts for the principal amount, interest rate, and loan duration to determine consistent payments.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard loan payment formula:

Where:

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

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed payment that pays off the loan with interest over the specified term.

3. Importance of Loan Payment Calculation

Details: Accurate payment calculation helps businesses budget for loan repayments, compare financing options, and understand the total cost of borrowing.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the loan amount in AUD, annual interest rate as a percentage, and loan term in years. All values must be positive numbers.
