How this is calculated
Payments. A Canadian fixed-rate mortgage is compounded semi-annually, so the effective rate for each payment period is i = (1 + annual rate ÷ 2)2/f − 1, where f is the number of payments per year (12, 26, or 52). The payment is P = L × i ÷ (1 − (1 + i)−n), where L is the mortgage amount and n is the total number of payments. At 0% interest the payment is simply L ÷ n.
Land transfer tax. Newfoundland and Labrador has no land transfer tax, so the tax line is zero. A registration fee is payable to the land titles office.
