How to calculate how much you can borrow
In modern society, loans have become an important way for many people to purchase houses, cars or start businesses. However, many people don’t know exactly how much money they can borrow. This article will combine the hot topics and hot content on the Internet in the past 10 days to provide you with a detailed analysis of the loan limit calculation method and provide structured data for reference.
1. Main factors affecting loan amount

The loan amount is not fixed but is determined by a combination of factors. The following are the key factors that affect the loan amount:
| factors | Description |
|---|---|
| income level | Banks usually require monthly payments not to exceed 50% of monthly income |
| credit score | The higher the credit score, the larger the loan limit |
| Liabilities | Existing loans affect new loan limit |
| Collateral value | The mortgage loan amount is usually 70-80% of the value of the collateral |
| loan term | The longer the term, the lower the monthly payment, but the higher the total interest. |
2. Common loan types and calculation methods
Different types of loans have different calculation methods. Here's how it's calculated for three common loan types:
| Loan type | Calculation formula | Example |
|---|---|---|
| mortgage | Monthly payment = loan principal × monthly interest rate × (1+monthly interest rate)^number of repayment months/[(1+monthly interest rate)^number of repayment months-1] | 1 million loan, 30-year term, interest rate 4.9%, monthly payment of approximately 5,307 yuan |
| car loan | Monthly payment = loan amount × (1 + total interest rate) / number of repayment months | 200,000 loan, 3-year term, total interest rate 10%, monthly payment is about 6,111 yuan |
| credit loan | Quota = monthly income × multiple (usually 10-20 times) | With a monthly income of RMB 10,000, you can obtain a credit loan of RMB 100,000 to RMB 200,000. |
3. Loan evaluation standards commonly used by banks
Banks usually refer to the following criteria when approving loans:
| bank | Mortgage standards | Credit loan standards |
|---|---|---|
| ICBC | Monthly payment shall not exceed 50% of monthly income | Good credit, monthly income of more than 5,000 yuan |
| China Construction Bank | Down payment for first home starts from 30% | No bad records, stable work |
| China Merchants Bank | The loan term is up to 30 years | High-quality customers can receive higher quotas |
4. Tips for increasing loan limit
If you wish to obtain a higher loan amount, you may consider the following methods:
1.Improve credit score: Repay on time and reduce credit card overdrafts
2.Proof of increased income: Provide proof of additional sources of income
3.Reduce debt ratio: Repay part of the loan early
4.provide guarantee: Find a guarantor with good credit
5.Choose the right bank: Different banks have different policies, so you can compare more
5. Recommended loan calculation tools
Many banks and financial websites now provide online loan calculators. You only need to enter relevant information to quickly estimate the loan amount and monthly payment. It is recommended to use these tools to perform simulation calculations before applying for a loan.
Finally, I would like to remind everyone that although loans can solve financial problems, they must also be used within their capabilities. Only with a reasonable debt ratio and repayment plan can loans truly become a tool to improve life, rather than a burden.
I hope that through the introduction in this article, you will have a clearer understanding of how much money you can borrow and make more informed financial decisions.
