How is the total interest of my loan calculated for the repayment period?

Total interest on Cash-on-Instalments will be calculated on a flat-rate basis and shall be fixed for the entire loan. Please note that this excludes the one-time processing fee.

Total interest to be paid will be computed using the following information:

Illustration:
Approved Loan Amount: $10,000
Interest Rate (Flat Rate) as quoted in the loan application form being 3.8%
Selected Tenor: 12 months

Total Interest for repayment period:
Interest Rate (Flat Rate) x Approved Loan Amount x Selected Tenor / 12 months
3.8% x $10,000 x (12/12) = $380

How are the Monthly and Final Instalment amounts for the Approved Loan Amount computed?
Monthly Instalment: Final Instalment:
Approved Loan Amount + Total Interest
 

 
Selected Loan Tenor
 
Above calculation is rounded to the nearest 2 decimals
Approved Loan Amount + Total Interest - sum of Monthly Instalments billed (i.e. Monthly Instalment x (Selected Tenor -1))

Please see the next question for illustration of the above.

How much interest and principal am I paying each month?

Monthly interest is computed by using a monthly rest basis applying the monthly rest rate on the outstanding amount of the Approved Loan Amount. The interest collected will be reduced as repayments are made each month.

Illustration:

Approved Loan Amount: $10,000
Interest Rate (Flat Rate) as quoted in the loan application form being 3.8%
Selected Tenor: 24 months
Total Interest (based on Selected Tenor): 3.8% x $10,000 x (24/12) = $760
