💡 Understanding Loan Amortization
Amortization is the process of paying off a loan through regular payments over time. Each payment covers both interest and principal, but early payments are mostly interest while later payments are mostly principal. This calculator shows you exactly how your loan is paid down.
💰 Save Money with Extra Payments
Making extra payments can significantly reduce your total interest paid and help you pay off your loan faster. Even small extra monthly payments of $50-$100 can save thousands in interest over the life of the loan. Use this calculator to see the impact!
📊 How to Read Your Schedule
- Payment Number: The sequential payment (1, 2, 3, etc.)
- Principal: Amount that reduces your loan balance
- Interest: Cost of borrowing (decreases over time)
- Balance: Remaining amount owed after each payment
