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. The tax is tiered: 1.0% above the last bracket. Each bracket applies only to the portion of the price inside it.
