Mala-awaallada xisaabinta

  • The values entered for nominal annual rate and compounds per year are accurate for the scenario.
  • Rates and recurring amounts remain constant for the period represented by the formula.
  • Provider fees, taxes and timing differences are excluded unless they are explicit inputs.

Sida loo fasiro natiijada

  • Treat the main number as a planning estimate, not a quote, approval or guarantee.
  • Compare at least a baseline, lower and higher assumption before deciding.
  • Use the result together with the related finance calculators for a broader view.

Khaladaadka caadiga ah ee laga fogaado

  • Entering a percentage as a decimal when the field expects a whole percent.
  • Comparing results that use different time periods or omit different fees.
  • Rounding inputs early or treating an estimated rate as guaranteed.
