1. What is the Loan Payment Formula?

The loan payment formula calculates fixed monthly payments for amortizing loans. It accounts for principal amount, interest rate, and loan term to determine regular repayments.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard loan payment formula:

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

Where:

\( P \) — Principal loan amount (AUD)
\( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
\( n \) — Number of payments (loan term in years × 12)
\( PMT \) — Monthly payment amount (AUD)

Tax Consideration: The calculator can optionally include tax implications by adjusting the payment amount based on the specified tax rate.

3. Importance of Loan Calculation

Details: Accurate loan payment calculation helps borrowers understand their financial commitments, compare loan offers, and plan their budgets effectively.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in AUD, annual interest rate as percentage, loan term in years, and optional tax rate if applicable. All values must be positive numbers.
