Composition of Loan Payments

Any loan payment is a combination of principal and interest. As a loan is amortized by equal regular payments, later payments are comprised of more principal but less interest than earlier payments. The purpose of this calculator is to enable you to make a visual comparison of the interest/principal composition of any two payments.
