Principal and interest, monthly, as if the rate held for the whole term: a fixed rate reverts to a variable one when the fixed period ends. Fees, offsets and extra repayments aren't included; the repayment calculator handles those. Not Cairns bank's own calculator: confirm the rate with Cairns bank before you apply.
