Amortization Schedule Calculator
This Amortization Schedule Calculator shows a detailed breakdown of each monthly payment, including how much goes toward interest and how much reduces the principal. Use it to plan your loan payments or see how early payments affect your balance.
📄 What Is an Amortization Schedule?
An amortization schedule is a complete table that shows each monthly loan payment broken into principal and interest. Additionally, it tracks the remaining balance after every payment. Because of this, it’s useful for understanding exactly how your loan is paid down over time.
📊 Why Use an Amortization Schedule Calculator?
While standard loan calculators give you the monthly payment, this tool goes further. In fact, it shows how much of each payment reduces your principal and how much covers interest. As a result, you gain better insight into how your loan behaves across the full term. Moreover, it helps you plan for early payments or compare different loan options more effectively.
🧮 How to Use the Calculator
- First, enter the total loan amount.
- Next, input your annual interest rate.
- Then, choose the loan term in years.
- Finally, click “Generate Schedule” to see all monthly payments.
The generated table will show each month’s payment in detail. Therefore, you can track your progress, identify how much interest you’re paying, and make informed financial decisions along the way.
📌 When Should You Use This Tool?
This calculator is especially helpful when:
- You’re planning a mortgage or auto loan
- You want to understand how early payments impact total interest
- You’re comparing multiple loan terms and interest rates
- You’re preparing for refinancing or payoff planning
Even if your lender offers a summary, creating your own schedule ensures you see the full picture. In many cases, it highlights savings opportunities you might otherwise miss.
