How to use this calculator

  1. Enter loan amount, APR, and term.
  2. Enter a recurring extra monthly payment (or leave zero).
  3. Optionally enter a lump-sum amount and the month you’ll apply it.
  4. Review payoff months/years, total interest with/without prepay, and interest saved.

Inputs explained

Recurring extra
Fixed amount added to each monthly payment and applied to principal.
Lump-sum month
Month number when the lump sum is applied (e.g., 1 = first payment, 13 = after first year).

How it works

We calculate the standard amortized payment.

We simulate amortization month-by-month adding the recurring extra to each payment and applying a one-time lump sum at the chosen month.

We compare payoff timing and total interest to the base schedule without prepayments.

When to use it

  • Modeling a bonus/tax refund lump sum plus rounding up monthly payments.
  • Comparing strategies: recurring extra only vs lump sum only (set the other to zero).
  • Sharing a quick amort summary without exporting a full spreadsheet.

Tips & cautions

  • Test different lump months to see how earlier prepayments boost savings.
  • If you only want recurring extras, set lump sum to zero. For lump-only, set recurring extra to zero.
  • This ignores escrow/fees—focus on principal and interest effects.
  • Fixed-rate only; no PMI/escrow/fees.
  • Assumes constant recurring extra and a single lump event; not a full editable spreadsheet.
