How this estimate works
Charge equivalent-period interest on opening principal, apply scheduled/extra principal, then cap the final payment at balance plus accrued interest. Year-end extras occur after each complete scheduled year.
Assumptions and limits
- Amounts are NZD. Enter actual current rates, balances and cost quotes; no bank offer or personal eligibility is invented.
- Constant-rate monthly nominal model or an explicitly labeled equivalent-period scenario. Actual daily accrual, payment dates, fees, rate fixes and lender rounding can differ.
- Educational arithmetic only. Provider, lender, IRD, tenancy and legal eligibility need independent confirmation. A repayment period differs from a fixed-rate deal period.
- The 26/52-period model is not an actual lender daily calendar. Use only extras allowed under the contract; penalties are not automatically quoted.

Amounts use unrounded intermediate arithmetic and are rounded only for display. Selecting different costs, rates, payment dates or terms changes the result; no illustration value is prefilled into your personal financial fields.
