Assumptions and methodology
Enter loan details to see the formula note.
- Reducing-balance EMI uses the standard annuity formula on the financed principal.
- Flat rate charges interest on the original amount for the full term.
- Estimated annual cost is a cash-flow IRR annualised from net proceeds and scheduled payments.
- Fee treatment changes net proceeds and/or financed principal; it does not invent lender rounding.
- Opportunity figures are illustrations at the rate you set — not a forecast.
Estimates only—not financial advice. Confirm fees, rates and repayment terms with the lender.
