How can I effectively estimate my monthly payment?
I know websites give you certain tools to estimate, but they don't include taxes and things like that right?
I know that at the Nissan website they get the MSRP and just cut it up depending on your down payment, APR, and/or trade in. I was wondering how I could effectively calculate a monthly payment with these things on mind. This is partly because I don't know how much exactly would go into taxes and dealer fees. Maybe you guys could tell me, as well, how much your pay a month and how your taxes and dealer fees stacked up. Thanks a lot. Really. |

TTL would best be answered by a dealership in your area, tax where I live is 6.25% and I know that title and license (and anything else) is 275USD.
Basic formula: =(X*(I/12))/(1-(1+I/12)^-M) X=Final price (TTL) I=Interest & M=How many months I am working for invoice price, so I take invoice times 6.25% and then add 275 and I have my X. Interest % I am really unsure of but I have been using 7% by hopefully shooting over, and then I know I want a five year note so that will be 60 months.

That's a compound interest formula, right? I still don't see what you try to get with it, though.
Whats TTL again? Tags/title/license??? What's the invoice for a Base + Sport Package? What about just Base? Last edited by MarcusMIA; 03-15-2009 at 09:01 PM. |

Invoice pricing
That compound interest formula is what shows you your monthly payment, based on those variables.

Depends on the career.
I will say, that currently I have a nice spreadsheet going with many different variables. X model with Y features, then I want to put down M amount of money, and estimate I% interest rate. I try to plan out everything before I even think about jumping onto it.

I have used calculators, similar to these for years...
Amazon.com: financial calculator Great for any sort of financial figures etc.. Also great at double checking the dealer's figures at contract signing.
