Frequently asked questions
- Why does so much of the early payment go to interest?
- Because your balance is highest at the start, so the interest portion (balance × monthly rate) is large. As the balance falls, each payment covers less interest and more principal.
- Can I use this for a mortgage?
- Yes — enter the mortgage principal, your annual interest rate, and term in years. For extra payment impact use the Extra Mortgage Payment Calculator.
