Annuity estimate with a fixed rate and no fees. A bank offer can include establishment fees, a different rate, and a credit check.

Formula and calculation logic

Monthly payment = P × r(1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1); if r = 0, payment = P ÷ n

P = principal, r = annual interest rate ÷ 12, n = rounded number of monthly payments; total interest = payment × n − P

P is the loan principal. r is the monthly interest rate as a decimal, and n is the number of monthly payments.

The monthly rate is the annual rate divided by 12. The payment is the standard annuity that brings the balance to zero after the last month.

A rate of zero splits the amount into equal principal payments and adds no interest.

The first-year lines show why the balance falls slowly at the beginning of a long loan. That split changes every year as the balance shrinks.

Assumptions

  • The rate stays fixed for the whole term. Norwegian loans are often tied to a moving market rate.
  • There are no establishment fees, term fees, or insurance in the payment.
  • Payments are shown in whole kroner.

Questions about this tool

Is this a bank offer?

No. It is the mathematics of a fixed annuity. The rate a lender will actually offer depends on security, income, and the product.

Can I use it for a mortgage?

Yes. The mortgage tool uses the same formula with home-loan defaults, and the affordability page adds the lending limits.

What term should I type?

Use years, including a fraction such as 5.5. The page converts that to the nearest number of monthly payments.
