How Our Balloon Payment Calculator Works

Our balloon payment calculator uses present value calculations to determine monthly payments for structured loans. The calculation considers the loan amount, interest rate, loan term, and balloon payment amount to provide accurate payment estimates and total cost analysis for balloon financing arrangements.

The Balloon Loan Calculation Formula

PV of Balloon = Balloon Amount / (1 + r)^n
PV of Loan = Loan Amount - PV of Balloon
Monthly Payment = PV of Loan × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n-1]

This formula calculates the monthly payment based on the present value of the loan amount minus the present value of the balloon payment, ensuring the loan is properly structured with the specified balloon amount.
