1. What is the EMI Formula?

The EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) formula calculates fixed monthly payments for Yamaha motor vehicle financing through Wesbank. It accounts for principal amount, interest rate, and loan term.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Loan principal amount (ZAR)
• \( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
• \( n \) — Loan term in months

Explanation: The formula calculates a fixed monthly payment that includes both principal and interest components, with the interest portion decreasing over time.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Understanding your EMI helps in budgeting for motorcycle ownership costs and comparing different financing options from Wesbank.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the loan amount in ZAR, annual interest rate (as offered by Wesbank), and loan term in months. All values must be positive numbers.

Q4: Can I prepay my Yamaha loan?
