How is interest calculated on a mortgage payoff?

Lenders multiply your outstanding balance by your annual interest rate but divide by 12 because you're making monthly payments. So if you owe $300,000 on your mortgage and your rate is 4%, you'll initially owe $1,000 in interest per month ($300,000 x 0.04 12).
