The calculator uses the simple formula:
Where:
Explanation: This calculation helps you see how each weekly payment reduces your overall loan balance.
Details: Tracking weekly payments helps you stay on top of your loan repayment schedule, understand how quickly you're paying down your debt, and plan for when your loan will be fully paid off.
Tips: Enter your current loan balance and weekly payment amount in dollars. Both values must be positive numbers.
Q1: Can I use this for other types of loans?
A: Yes, this calculator can be used for any type of loan where you make weekly payments, though it's specifically designed for car loans.
Q2: What if my weekly payment is more than my current balance?
A: The calculator will show a zero balance, indicating your loan is paid off. You would only pay the remaining balance, not the full weekly payment amount.
Q3: Does this calculator account for interest?
A: No, this is a simple payoff calculator that subtracts payments from the principal balance. For interest calculations, you would need a more comprehensive loan calculator.
Q4: How often should I use this calculator?
A: You can use it each time you make a weekly payment to track your progress and see your updated remaining balance.
Q5: Can I calculate how many weeks until my loan is paid off?
A: While this calculator shows your new balance after one payment, you can divide your total balance by your weekly payment to estimate the number of weeks needed for full payoff.
