1. What is the EMI Formula?

The EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) formula calculates the fixed payment amount a borrower makes to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. For Tesco Clubcard Loans in Australia, this formula helps determine your monthly repayment amount.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?
