Reducing Calculator

How It Works

  1. Input PTSD Severity:
    Enter a severity level from 1 to 10, where 1 is mild PTSD and 10 is severe. This value reflects the intensity of the condition and its impact on your daily life.
  2. Enter Years Since Incident:
    Add the number of years that have passed since the traumatic incident occurred. The longer the time, the higher the estimated compensation, reflecting prolonged suffering or delayed treatment.
  3. Calculate Compensation:
    Click the Calculate button. The calculator uses a formula combining severity and years since the incident to estimate your compensation.
  4. View Result:
    The estimated compensation is displayed along with the calculation date. You can also reset the form to enter new values.

Example: PTSD Calculator in Action

Suppose a veteran has a PTSD severity of 7 and it has been 5 years since the incident. Inputting these numbers into the calculator will generate an estimated compensation figure quickly, helping the individual understand potential financial support before filing a formal claim.

Benefits of Using the PTSD Calculator

  • Quick Estimates: No need for complex paperwork or legal consultation just to get a preliminary figure.
  • Decision-Making Support: Helps victims make informed decisions about filing claims or seeking medical documentation.
  • Transparent Process: Shows how severity and time influence the estimated compensation, providing clarity.

Reducing Calculator

The Reducing Calculator is designed to help you calculate total loan payments and interest for loans with a reducing balance. This is particularly useful for home loans, personal loans, or any financial scenario where interest is applied to the remaining balance rather than the original principal.

How It Works

  1. Enter Principal Amount:
    Add the loan amount or principal you are borrowing.
  2. Enter Annual Interest Rate:
    Input the annual interest rate as a percentage.
  3. Enter Time Period:
    Specify the loan duration in years.
  4. Calculate Total Payment:
    Click the Calculate button. The tool computes both the total interest and the total payment over the loan period using the reducing balance method.
  5. View Result:
    The total payment and total interest are displayed along with the date of calculation. Reset anytime to try different scenarios.

Example: Reducing Calculator in Action

For example, if you take a loan of $10,000 at a 5% annual interest rate over 3 years, the Reducing Calculator will break down how interest decreases as the principal reduces, giving you a clear picture of repayment schedules and total interest.

Benefits of Using the Reducing Calculator

  • Financial Planning: Understand total costs and interest before taking a loan.
  • Easy Comparison: Compare different loan offers by quickly changing interest rates or durations.
  • Accuracy: Reduces errors from manual calculations, giving reliable results.
