1. What is the EMI Calculation?

The EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) calculation determines your fixed monthly payment for a Tesco loan, including both principal and interest components. It helps you plan your finances by knowing exactly how much you need to pay each month.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (GBP)
• \( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12, in decimal)
• \( N \) — Loan tenure in months

Explanation: The formula calculates a fixed monthly payment that pays off the loan principal plus interest over the specified term.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Knowing your EMI helps you budget effectively, compare loan offers, and understand the total cost of borrowing before committing to a loan.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the loan amount in GBP, annual interest rate as a percentage, and loan duration in months. All values must be positive numbers.
