How are the calculations for periodic payments done?

The calculations for the monthly payments, including interests can be carried out using an online finance calculator, as follows:

30-year Loan:

N (# of periods) = 360 months (12 x 30 years)

I/Y (Interest per year) = 3.85%

PV (Present Value) = $417000

FV (Future Value) = $0

Results:

PMT = $1,954.93

Sum of all periodic payments = $703,774.80 ($1,954.93 x 360)

Total Interest = $286,774.20 ($703,774.80 - $417,000)

15-year Loan:

N (# of periods) = 180 months (12 x 15 years)

I/Y (Interest per year) = 3.85%

PV (Present Value) = $417000

FV (Future Value) = $0

Results:

PMT = $3,053.25

Sum of all periodic payments = $549,585 ($3,053.25 x 180)

Total Interest = $132,585 ($549,585 - $417,000)
