How this calculator works
The calculator first estimates the regular payment for your remaining balance and term. It then applies the lump sum immediately to principal and compares the accelerated schedule with the original schedule.
Change any input to update the estimate instantly. Your entries never leave your device.
Frequently asked questions
Does a lump-sum payment lower my required monthly payment?
Usually not unless your lender recasts the loan. This estimate keeps the regular monthly payment unchanged and shortens the payoff schedule.
Are prepayment penalties included?
No. Check your loan documents and lender policy before making a large principal payment.
When is the lump sum applied?
It is modeled as an immediate principal reduction before the next monthly interest charge.
