What is the importance of borrowing from an officially registered financial institution?

Borrowing from a financial institution that is registered with the Financial Services Authority (OJK) ensures protection and legitimacy, reducing the risk of being misled or trapped by unfair terms.

What factors contribute to larger loan repayments?

Factors contributing to larger loan repayments include a larger loan principal, higher interest rates, shorter repayment periods, and penalties for late payments.

How can late payment penalties affect the loan repayment process?

Late payment penalties can significantly increase the amount a borrower needs to repay, especially if the penalties are not well understood or factored into the initial calculations.

What is the difference between the 'annuity' and 'flat' interest calculation methods?

The 'annuity' method is commonly used for long-term loans and calculates repayments based on the remaining loan balance. The 'flat' method is used for short-term loans and calculates repayments based on the original principal amount, leading to higher total repayments over time.

Borrowers can estimate their loan repayments using online calculators or tools like Excel, which use formulas to calculate monthly repayments based on loan amount, interest rate, and loan term.

What is the impact of the interest rate on loan repayment calculations?

The interest rate directly affects the total amount repaid. Higher interest rates lead to larger repayments, while lower rates result in smaller monthly payments.

Why is it important to understand the profit margin of a financial institution when taking out a loan?

Understanding the profit margin helps borrowers compare different loan offers, especially since the profit margin can vary significantly between financial institutions using different calculation methods (like an annuity versus flat). This ensures that borrowers make informed decisions.
