## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agent402-tools-financial-math-compound-loan-0b5fc9df -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What would my monthly payment and total repayment be on a $25,000 car loan at 6.9% annual interest over 5 years? Also, separately, if I invest $10,000 at 5% compounded monthly for 10 years, what's the future value?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick, accurate financial math for either compound interest projections or loan payment calculations without building your own formulas. Prefer it over general-purpose code execution when you need a reliable, paid-API-grade financial computation with structured output. Best for single-scenario calculations; use the sibling loan-comparison or amortization-schedule endpoints for multi-scenario or period-by-period breakdowns.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (op, principal, annualRatePct, years/months) returns an error
- Invalid op value (not 'compound' or 'loan') returns an error
- Zero or negative principal or rate may produce unexpected results
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance insufficient — returns 402 status

## How this service works

Financial math. op: "compound" (future value of principal at a rate) or "loan" (monthly payment + total for a loan).

## Output

For 'compound' op: returns the future value of the principal after the specified term at the given rate and compounding frequency. For 'loan' op: returns the monthly payment amount and the total cost of the loan over its full term.
