A car loan calculator determines monthly payments, total cost, and total interest for an auto loan. The same amortisation formula used for mortgages applies: each payment covers accumulated interest first, then reduces the principal.

공식

Monthly payment M = P × r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1)
M
P × r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1) — P × r(1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1)
P
loan principal — loan principal
