Understanding Loan Payments

Each loan payment you make includes two parts: principal (the amount borrowed) and interest (the cost of borrowing). Early in the loan, a larger share of each payment goes toward interest. As the balance decreases, more goes toward principal.

This process, called amortization, shows how your loan balance declines over time and why extra payments can shorten your term and save money.
