 The Lump Sum Calculator calculates the time saved to pay off the loan and 
 the amount of interest saved if a single additional lump sum repayment is made, 
 equal to the entered amount of additional lump sum repayment after the loan has 
 been in force for the entered number of years, in addition to continuing the regular repayments. 
 The calculation is done at the repayment frequency entered, in respect of the original loan parameters entered, 
 namely amount, annual interest rate and term in years.

 Calculator Assumptions
 Length of Month 
 
 Bank of Melbourne term home loans have 12 equal monthly repayments in one year.
		Fortnightly and Weekly Payments
 
 Bank of Melbourne allows you to pay half your monthly repayment every fortnight, 
			or one quarter of your monthly repayment every week. If you elect to make 
			fortnightly or weekly loan repayments, this means that over a year you 
			would make one extra monthly repayment and your Loan Term would shorten.
 Rounding of Amount of Each Repayment
 
 In practice, repayments are rounded to at least the nearer cent. However the calculator
 uses the unrounded repayment to derive the amount of interest payable at points
 along the graph and in total over the full term of the loan. This assumption allows
 for a smooth graph and equal repayment amounts. Note that the final repayment after
 the increase in repayment amount will be a partial repayment as required to reduce
 the loan balance to zero.
 Rounding of Time Saved
 
 The time saved is presented as a number of years and months, for all available repayment frequency options, 
			namely monthly, fortnightly & weekly. This is rounded down to the next lower month and hence is slightly conservative.
 Amount of Interest Saved
 
 In contrast to the calculation of time saved, the calculation of the amount of interest 
			saved is not rounded and is shown to full accuracy including the number of cents. 
			This amount can only be approximated from the amount of time saved.
