The EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) calculation helps determine the fixed monthly payment amount for a car loan in Hong Kong. It includes both principal and interest components, allowing borrowers to plan their finances effectively.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

\[ EMI = \frac{P \times R \times (1 + R)^N}{(1 + R)^N - 1} \]

\( P \) — Principal loan amount (HKD)
\( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
