Prepayment comparison
Quick answer
How much interest can an extra monthly debt payment save?
For reducing-balance debt, an extra amount applied to principal lowers the next period's interest base. This tool simulates the original schedule and the extra-payment schedule, then reports the difference.
How to use this tool
- Enter outstanding principal, rate, and remaining months from the latest statement.
- Enter the additional amount you plan to pay each month.
- Compare payoff time and interest, then confirm principal-application rules with the lender.
How the calculation works
The scheduled payment uses the annuity formula with monthly rate = annual rate ÷ 12. Each monthly simulation calculates interest on opening principal and applies the payment. The alternative adds a fixed amount each month. Interest and month differences are the estimated savings.
Examples
| Example | Input | Expected result |
|---|---|---|
| Zero-interest debt | |
Scheduled THB 1,000, new payment THB 1,500, payoff in 8 months, 4 months saved, and THB 0 interest saved |
| No extra payment | |
The calculated term and interest do not change |
Limitations
- Supports equal-payment reducing-balance loans and a constant monthly extra amount.
- Variable rates, actual dates, default interest, insurance, fees, and payment holidays are excluded.
- The result is not a lender's settlement quote or account confirmation.
Frequently asked questions
Is every extra payment immediately applied to principal?
Do not assume so. Check the contract, posting date, and lender instructions for principal prepayment.
Can I use this for a floating rate?
The result holds the entered rate constant. Recalculate after any rate change.
Are early-settlement or refinancing costs included?
No. Consider appraisal, mortgage, stamp, contract, and other charges separately.
