Frequently asked questions about the loan calculator

How is the monthly repayment calculated?+

It uses the standard annuity formula: P × r ÷ (1 − (1 + r)^−n), where P is the principal, r is the monthly interest rate and n is the number of months. Every instalment is the same size.

Does it include fees and insurance?+

No. Arrangement fees, mandatory insurance and account charges are excluded, so a lender's APRC will usually be slightly higher than the rate you enter here.

Can I see how much interest I save by paying more?+

Shorten the term and compare the totals. A shorter term raises the monthly payment but usually reduces total interest substantially.
