What will your monthly payment be?

Three factors affect your monthly loan payment: the amount financed, the length of the loan, and the interest rate. One way to lower the monthly cost is to extend the length of the loan. Beware of this strategy, however. A longer length makes a loan more expensive because you will pay more in interest over the life of the obligation. Use the calculator below to figure the monthly payment on a loan.

Loan amount ($)

Interest rate^* (%)

Length of loan (in years)

^*For adjustable-rate loans, use your current rate as an estimate.
