What this is

Monthly payment + full amortization schedule for a Canadian mortgage.

Uses semi-annual compounding, the federally-regulated convention for Canadian residential mortgages. The payment number assumes a fixed rate over the full amortization; in practice you renew every 5 years at the prevailing rate.

  • ·Principal: outstanding balance you owe today (or initial loan amount).
  • ·Rate: the posted annual rate. Banks compound this semi-annually for Canadian mortgages.
  • ·Amortization: total years to pay it off. 25 is common; 30 requires 20%+ down on uninsured mortgages.
