About Balloon Payment Loan Calculator

A balloon loan amortises only part of the principal, leaving a lump sum at maturity. The monthly payment is computed on the loan less the present value of the balloon, which is why the instalment is noticeably lighter than a fully amortising one.

Formula

Balloon structure

Payment = PMT(P - B·(1+r)^-n, r, n), with B repaid at maturity

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the risk?

Refinancing risk. If credit conditions or the asset's value have moved against you when the balloon falls due, replacing it can be expensive.

Why does total interest rise?

The balloon portion stays outstanding for the whole term, accruing interest throughout.
