โ๏ธ How It Works
๐ Monthly Payment Formula
For standard loans without extra payments:
r = monthly interest rate = annualRate /12/100n = termMonthspayment = principal *(r *(1+ r)^n)/((1+ r)^n -1)
- Extra monthly payments reduce total interest and shorten the loan term.
- Compounding frequency adjusts how interest accrues over time.
๐งฎ Example
