How it Works

An amortization schedule gives you a complete year-by-year breakdown of your loan repayment. For each year, you can see exactly how much of your total payment goes toward reducing the principal balance and how much is paid as interest to the lender.

In the early years of a mortgage, the majority of each payment covers interest. As you progress through the term, the balance shrinks and a larger portion of each payment goes toward principal. This shift is clearly visible in the stacked bar chart above the table.

The schedule is invaluable for planning extra payments or early payoff strategies. By seeing how much interest remains at any point in the loan, you can make informed decisions about whether to invest extra funds in paying down your mortgage or direct them elsewhere.

This calculator uses the standard French amortization method with equal monthly payments, which is the most common structure in Europe and worldwide for residential mortgages and personal loans.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an amortization schedule?

An amortization schedule is a table showing each periodic payment on an amortizing loan. It breaks down how much of each payment goes toward interest and how much reduces the principal balance.

Why do I pay more interest at the beginning?

Because interest is calculated on the outstanding balance. Early in the loan, the balance is at its highest, so a larger share of each payment goes to interest. Over time, as the balance decreases, more goes toward principal.

How can I use this schedule to save money?

By making extra payments toward principal, you reduce the outstanding balance faster, which reduces total interest paid. The schedule helps you visualize the impact of early payoff strategies.

Is this schedule the same for all loan types?

This calculator uses the standard French amortization method (equal monthly payments). Other methods include Italian amortization (equal principal payments) and bullet loans (interest-only with principal at maturity).
