Frequently asked questions
Should I enter a monthly or annual rate?
You can choose either. If you enter an annual rate, the tool converts it to an equivalent monthly rate.

No. The result is a gross estimate for comparing simple scenarios.
Can I use it for debt?
Yes, as a generic simulation. Real credit products can include fees, penalties and different compounding rules.
