Frequently asked questions
Why is more interest paid early in the loan?
Interest is calculated on the remaining balance, which is highest at the beginning of the loan.
Can this be used for USDA or FSA farm loans?
Yes. The amortization math is the same, though rates and terms may vary.
Does making extra payments reduce interest?
Yes. Extra principal payments reduce the balance and total interest.
