Business Financing calculators

Business financing is often quoted in ways that hide the true cost: factor rates, flat fees, holdbacks and “per 30 days” pricing. These calculators show equipment and SBA loan offers on the same yardstick — the annual percentage rate (APR) — so you can compare them side by side.

Each tool shows the cash you actually receive, the total you repay and the effective annual cost, along with the questions to ask before you sign.

Equipment and SBA loan calculators

Compare equipment loans with leases, estimate SBA 7(a) payments and fees, and choose between Section 179 and bonus depreciation.

Which business financing calculator do you need?

  • Buying equipment or vehicles? The equipment loan calculator estimates payments, APR and potential Section 179 tax savings.
  • Applying for an SBA loan? The SBA loan calculator estimates 7(a) payments, the guaranty fee and the APR.

Always compare on APR

Business financing is priced in many ways — factor rates, per-30-day fees, holdbacks, points and interest rates. The only fair comparison is the annual percentage rate on the cash you actually receive, over the time you actually use it. A 1.3 factor rate repaid in six months, a 3% fee per 30 days and a 12% term loan can differ by a factor of ten in real cost. Before you sign, ask every provider for the total repayment amount, all fees and the expected term, then run the numbers here.
