Finance

Loan payments, mortgages, debt payoff, compound interest and savings goals from the numbers you enter.

Borrowing and saving are the same arithmetic run in opposite directions, and most of the confusion comes from what a quoted rate actually means. An annual rate divided across twelve monthly periods is not an effective annual rate, a lower payment is not always a lower total cost, and a minimum payment that only covers the month's interest never clears a balance at all. These calculators use only the amounts, rates and terms you enter, run the schedule in whole cents the way a lender does, and show the totals you could reconcile against a statement. They quote no rates, recommend no products and decide nobody's eligibility for anything.
