What is Loan Interest?
Loan interest is the cost you pay to borrow money from a bank or financial institution. It is usually calculated as a percentage of the loan amount and added to your total repayment.
Understanding how interest works helps you make better financial decisions and avoid overpaying on loans.
FORMULA
Interest=P×r×t
👉 Where:
- P = Principal (loan amount)
- r = Interest rate
- t = Time (years)
EXAMPLE
If you borrow $5,000 at an interest rate of 5% for 2 years, the total interest will be calculated using the formula. This helps you understand how much extra you will pay on top of your loan amount.
