In short

Stonehollow Lending's balloon loan calculator works out the payment on an amortization schedule; the page shows by hand how the lump sum at the end of a shorter term is found.

Balloon Loan Calculator in Coeur d'Alene, ID: Entering the Amortization Term

  • Amount: the sum borrowed.
  • Interest rate: the annual rate stated in the offer.
  • Term: the amortization period in months, the period the payment is calculated over, not the shorter period before the balloon.

A balloon loan's payment is calculated as if the loan ran for the full amortization period, but the loan ends sooner and the remaining balance is due in one lump sum. The calculator returns that monthly payment. The total interest it shows is for the full amortization period, so read the balloon steps below for the shorter term.

Balloon Payment Calculator in Coeur d'Alene, ID: Working Out the Final Lump Sum

Illustration only, invented figures: $100,000 at an assumed annual rate of 8%, amortized over 120 months, with the balloon due after 60 months. The monthly payment is $1,213.28. After 60 payments, the balance still owed is $59,836.87, which is the balloon. The payments over the 60 months total $72,796.56 (our arithmetic).

To check it with the same invented figures: enter $100,000, 8 and 120 in the calculator for the payment, then use the formula in the Excel section for the balance after 60 payments.

Why Partners Offer Balloon Structures

A balloon keeps the monthly payment lower than a fully amortizing loan over the same short term, which can suit a business expecting a sale, a refinance or a large receivable before the balloon date. The risk is that the lump sum is due whether or not that event happens. Read the offer for what happens if the balloon cannot be paid.

Balloon Loan Calculator for a Vehicle or Truck in Coeur d'Alene, ID

Vehicle and equipment financing sometimes uses a balloon or residual at the end, which looks like a lease's purchase option. Enter the price less the down payment, the rate and the full amortization period, then work out the balance at the balloon date. Compare that lump sum with what the truck is likely to be worth then.

Balloon Loan Calculator Excel Formula for Coeur d'Alene, ID Owners

In a spreadsheet, the monthly payment is =PMT(rate/12, months, -amount). The balance after k payments, which is the balloon, is =FV(rate/12, k, payment, -amount) with the payment entered as a positive number. Using the invented figures above, the balance after the set number of payments matches the balloon shown.

Refinancing a Balloon Before It Comes Due in Coeur d'Alene, ID

Plan the balloon a year ahead. A business can pay it from cash, refinance the balance with a new term loan, or sell the asset. A refinance is a new request read on the business's records at that time, and no partner's decision is known in advance. Keep the records current so the request can go in early.

Using the Result in a Kootenai County, ID Funding Request
