Formatting only. This does not change the calculation.
The nominal annual rate (APR before fees), not the monthly rate.
Added to the term in years, for terms such as 5 years and 6 months. To state a tenure purely in months, set the years to 0 and enter the whole tenure here.
Additional principal paid on top of the scheduled payment.

How this is worked out

5 steps
  1. Each period, interest = outstanding balance x 0.541667%; the rest of the payment reduces principal.
  2. Payment 1: 135.42 interest and 22.6 principal.
  3. From payment 233 onwards more of each payment goes to principal than to interest.
  4. The balance is half repaid by payment 257.
  5. Year 1 ends with 24720.53 outstanding, 1.12% of the loan retired.

What the ammonization calculator calculates

Builds the full period-by-period amortisation table for a loan, showing how each payment splits between interest and principal.

How to use this ammonization calculator

Enter Loan amount, Annual interest rate, Loan term and Term - additional months. Payment updates as you type, and “Use a worked example” loads checked figures you can adjust. Change one figure at a time to see what drives the result.

How the result is worked out

Open “How this is worked out” beside the result for the step-by-step calculation behind Payment, Total interest and Total of payments.

The method follows Standard annuity-immediate payment formula, PMT = P i / (1 - (1+i)^-n) and 12 CFR Part 1026 (Regulation Z), Appendix J - Annual Percentage Rate Computations.

First payment split on 300k at 5% example

With Loan amount: 300000, Annual interest rate: 5, Loan term: 30, the calculator returns Interest in the first payment: 1250, Principal in the first payment: 360.46. This example is checked against an independent source in the test suite.

What you can compare

Change one input at a time to see how it affects Payment, Total interest and Total of payments. The inputs you can vary are Loan amount, Annual interest rate, Loan term, Term - additional months, Payment frequency and Extra payment each period.

Results are general information, not financial, tax, legal, medical or engineering advice. Check any decision that matters with a qualified professional.

Embed this calculator on your website

Copy this code into any page. The calculator appears with the figures currently entered, sizes itself to fit, and a small credit line links back here. Free, no account, no ads inside it, no tracking of your readers. Set your own figures and fixed fields; Personal removes the credit line, sets your colour and shows you which sites use it.

Frequently asked questions

What information do I need for the ammonization calculator?

You need Loan amount, Annual interest rate, Loan term, Term - additional months, Payment frequency and Extra payment each period. The page opens with default figures that give payment of 158.02, so you can see the scale before entering your own.

What does this ammonization calculator show?

It shows Payment, Total interest, Total of payments, Number of payments, Payoff time, Rate per period, Interest per unit borrowed and Interest saved by extra payments, with the working and any warnings for your entries.

Can I check how the ammonization calculator result was calculated?

Yes. The “How this is worked out” section shows the calculation steps, and the sources section identifies the references used for the method.
