I'm considering using my profit sharing and tax refund checks on my student loan and am looking for someone to check my math/reasoning.
If I pay an extra $4000 on my SL, I will go from $6644.27 total interest paid to $5493.44 total interest paid. Net effect, $1150.03 less interest paid. This would take my loan term to 44 months (3.67 years).
So, ROI/term = 1150.03 / 4000 = 28.75%
or ROI/yr = 7.83%
Other than interest deduction, am I missing something here?
