USE THIS PROFILE TO

Compare repayment pace, total cost and capacity before taking or restructuring debt.

DECISION RULE

Use the difference between option A and option B; keep the scale and horizon identical for both. Use this as the central case, then compare a lean and conservative profile. Check seasonality and any costs that occur only once per quarter.

NOT INCLUDED

Variable rates, late fees, prepayment rules, credit-score effects, taxes and lender eligibility are not inferred.

VERIFY BEFORE ACTING

Use the lender's current APR, fee schedule and payoff quote; preserve an emergency-cash margin.
