Finance Calculators

Mortgages, loans, interest, ROI, discount, tax — big-decision math without ads or lead-capture forms.

The finance calculators people actually need — with the answer front and center, not gated behind an email signup. Mortgage with a real year-by-year amortization schedule; loan calculator that shows what an extra $100/month saves; compound-interest projection for retirement planning; ROI + CAGR for investments; sales tax and discount calculators for shopping and shop math; APR ↔ APY converter for comparing credit-card and savings-account rates honestly.

None of this is financial advice. Every tool is a starting point: mortgages usually add taxes, insurance, and PMI (typically 15-30% on top of what our calculator shows). Real-world compound interest depends on the actual rate history, not a constant 7%.

The math itself is precise — standard amortization formulas, IEEE-754 floating point, verified against bank calculators. It's the model, not the calc, that requires judgment.

Frequently asked

Does the mortgage calculator include taxes and insurance?

No — it shows principal and interest only. Real monthly cost typically adds 15-30% for property taxes, homeowner's insurance, PMI (if down payment < 20%), and HOA fees. Add those separately when planning your budget.

What is the difference between APR and APY?

APR is the stated nominal rate without compounding. APY is what you actually earn or pay after compounding. 6% APR compounded monthly = 6.17% APY. Savings accounts advertise APY; credit cards advertise APR. Use our APR ↔ APY Converter to compare fairly.

How much does an extra $100/month save on my mortgage?

On a $300,000 / 6.5% / 30-year mortgage, $100/month extra saves about $77,000 in interest and cuts the term to ~25 years. Our Loan Calculator shows the exact number for your loan.

Does compounding frequency matter much?

Marginally. On a 7% rate over 30 years, monthly vs annual compounding differs by less than 1% of final balance. Daily vs monthly is basically noise. Focus on the RATE and CONTRIBUTION amount, not the frequency.

What is a good ROI?

Depends heavily on the asset class and time horizon. Long-term stock market average is ~7-10% real return; treasury bonds 2-4%; savings accounts 0-5%; individual stock picks vary wildly. Our ROI Calculator shows total return and annualized CAGR side-by-side so you can compare.
