Frequently asked questions

What kind of 'payment' does this calculate?

The monthly amount you'd need to save (a sinking fund) to reach a future goal — not a loan repayment.

How is this different from the Loan EMI Calculator?

EMI calculates a repayment on a loan you already owe; this calculates a savings deposit needed to reach a future amount.

What if the interest rate is 0%?

The payment is simply the goal divided evenly by the number of months.

Does a higher interest rate lower the required payment?

Yes — more of the goal is reached through interest, so smaller contributions are needed.
