    Assumptions used

    • • Monthly rate 0.7083% from 8.50% monthly
    • • Payment $1025.83 = 50000.00×0.007083(1+r)^60/((1+r)^n−1)
    • • Origination $1000.00 = $50000.00×2.0%
    • • Total interest $11549.59 = $61549.59−$50000.00

    How it works

    Methodology & formulas

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Calculate monthly rate based on selected compounding.
    2. 2Apply standard loan amortization formula.
    3. 3Compute origination fee and net proceeds.
    4. 4Simulate amortization with and without extra payment for savings.
    5. 5Sum total paid and interest, derive effective APR including fee impact.

    Formulas

    • r = annual%/100 /12
    • n = years×12
    • payment = P×r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n −1)
    • origination = loanAmount×fee%/100
    • net = loanAmount − origination
    • totalPaid = payment×n
    • totalInterest = totalPaid − loanAmount
    • withExtra: iterate balance = balance×(1+r) − (payment+extra)
    • effectiveAPR ≈ IRR of net proceeds vs payments approximated

    Important assumptions

    • Monthly rate = annualRate/100 /12 for monthly compounding; quarterly annual/4 per quarter with monthly payment derived; annual similar.
    • nMonths = loanTermYears ×12.
    • Origination fee = loanAmount × fee%/100.
    • Net proceeds = loanAmount − originationFee (typical SBA where fee deducted from proceeds or rolled into balance — we show deducted).
    • Monthly payment = P × r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n −1) standard amortization.
    • Total paid = monthlyPayment × n.
    • Total interest = totalPaid − loanAmount.
    • With extra payment: simulate month-by-month applying extra to principal, recalc interest on reduced balance.
    • Effective APR approximated via (totalCostWithFees / netProceeds) annualized IRR simplified.

    Worked example

    $50K at 8.5% for 5 years, 2% origination

    $50K loan, 8.5% APR, 5 years = $1,025.31/mo, total payments $61,518, total interest $11,518, origination $1,000 net $49K, effective APR ~9.3%. With $200 extra, payoff 52 months saves 8, interest saved $1,374.

    Monthly rate 0.085/12=0.007083. n=60. Payment = 50000*0.007083*1.007083^60 / (1.007083^60-1)=$1,025.31. Total $61,518. Interest $11,518. Fee $1,000 net proceeds $49,000. Effective APR ~9.3% via fee impact. Adding $200 extra → simulated payoff 52 months, interest $10,144, saves $1,374. Chart shows principal portion rising each month from ~65% principal to 99% at end.
