1. What is EMI Calculation?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) calculation helps determine the fixed monthly payment amount for a loan in Bangladesh. 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:

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

Where:

\( P \) — Principal loan amount (BDT)
\( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
\( N \) — Number of monthly installments (loan term in years × 12)
\( EMI \) — Equated Monthly Installment (BDT)

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment that pays off the loan principal and interest over the specified term.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation is crucial for financial planning, budgeting, and comparing different loan offers in the Bangladeshi market. It helps borrowers understand their repayment obligations and choose loans that fit their financial capacity.

4. Using the Calculator
