For a given loan amount, this chart is there to help you choose the right duration for your credit. Choosing the right duration is essential as it is
a trade-off between bearable monthly repayments and a reasonable total cost. Notice that on one hand, monthly repayments do not decrease linearly in function of the duration, while on the other hand, the total cost continues to increase approximately linearly. As an example, if you compare a mortgage loan on 15 years and on 20 years, monthly payments only decrease by 15%, whereas your total cost increases by 52% !!
