Loan Calculator
Use this calculator to determine the monthly payment for a fixed-rate loan. For car loans, determine if a longer term makes sense. Your monthly payment will drop, though your total cost will rise. For a mortgage, use the calculator more than once to compare different offers or the merits of refinancing. See how much a monthly payment drops by reducing the interest rate by just one half of one percent.
Accrued Interest Calculator
Interest on a bond accrues between regularly scheduled payments. To find out how much interest is owed on a given bond, use our accrued interest calculator. Select the appropriate bond type to figure accrued interest for corporate, municipal or government bonds. Interest for corporate and municipal bonds is calculated using a 360-day year. Interest for government bonds is calculated using a 365-day year.
