How to calculate Daily Simple Interest

Daily Simple Interest loan calculation involves a method by which the interest on a mortgage loan is calculated on a daily basis. The loan balance is reduced on the day when the payment is reduced rather than on the day when payment is due.


Under the Daily Simple Interest formulae, the daily interest rate is given by:


Daily Rate= Annual Rate/365

Amount of interest payable each month = Number of days since last payment * principal outstanding balance * Interest Rate factor


Let's take an example where outstanding principal balance is $10000. You've sent in a payment of $170 around 30 days after your previous month's payment. Let's say the interest rate is 8.5% (the interest rate factor is .00022585)


As per the above formulae,
Interest payable each month = 30 * 10000 * .00022585 = $67.7555


Daily Interest = Daily rate * loan balance

How are you billed for a daily loan that charges daily simple interest if the loan is tied into an index that changes daily. How would you know what your actual payment would be by the due date? In trying to pay the interest early (putting more to principal),.
As far as I know, you will have to divide 4.853% by 365 in order to get the daily simple interest.

daily interest rate = mortgage * interest rate/ 100 / 365

= 15,100 * 4/ 100 / 365

= 1.65 USD

I hope you got the method & reply

hi,

When you know the principal amount, the rate and the time. The amount of interest can be calculated by using the formula:I = Prt

what is the formula used to determine interest factor?

after 11 previous posts, i find it hard to believe that someone would come along and ask that question again. i guess some of them were hard to decipher, though.

amount multiplied by rate divided by 365 days (some calculations use 360 days). maybe the numbers are confusing to some.
