Results are estimates. Rates, payment dates, fees and taxes can change the actual amount.

Quarterly compounding, with instalments at the beginning of each month. M = P × [(1+i)^(n/3) − 1] ÷ [1 − (1+i)^(-1/3)], where i = annual rate (%) ÷ 400 and n is the number of months. At zero interest, M = P × n.

Fractional quarters use geometric accrual. Actual bank day counts, late instalments, rounding and premature closure rules can change the maturity amount.
