<h2>Loans</h2>
<p>This screen lets you calculate loan amounts and monthly
payments. For example, if you borrow money to buy a car, you can
figure out what your monthly payment will be. You can also do
what-if scenarios; for example, given a desired monthly payment,
you can calculate how much can you borrow.</p>
<p><strong>Example: </strong>You want to borrow $30000 to buy a
car. The rate is 9%, and the term of the loan is 48 months.
What's the monthly payment? Enter <strong>9, </strong>then press
the <strong>Annual Rate</strong> button. Enter <strong>30000</strong>,
then press the <strong>Amount </strong>button. Enter <strong>48</strong>,
and press the <strong>Months</strong> button. Now, press the <strong>?</strong>
button to the right of the <strong>Monthly Pmt</strong> button.
The value next to <strong>Monthly Pmt</strong> shows $746.55.</p>
<p>Suppose you can only afford $600 per month, how much can you
borrow? Enter <strong>600</strong>, then press the <strong>Monthly
Pmt</strong> button. Now press the <strong>?</strong> button to
the right of <strong>Amount</strong>. You'll see that you can
borrow $24,110.87</p>
<p>Now, suppose you are really set on buying this car. Calculate
the term of the loan to borrow $30,000 with a monthly payment of
$600. Enter <strong>30000</strong>, and press the <strong>Amount</strong>
button. Now press the <strong>?</strong> button to the right of
the <strong>Months</strong> button. You'll see you can swing it
with a loan of 62.90 months.</p>
<p><strong>Notes for this screen:</strong> the payments are
assumed to be at the end of the month. The interest rate is an
annual yeild, compounding monthly.</p>
