COMPUTER SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING AND DISPLAYING VEHICLE LOAN PARAMETERS
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for displaying and calculating a vehicle loan, comprising:
- displaying a gauge on a display device comprising a range of values that correspond to the vehicle loan;
receiving input comprising one of a selection of a region on a gauge and insertion of a number in a field;
calculating a parameter of the vehicle loan based on the input;
redisplaying the gauge with an indicator pointing to a value corresponding to the input; and
displaying a number in the field corresponding to one of the input and calculated parameter.

Abstract
A computer implemented method and system for displaying and calculating a vehicle loan can include input fields for adjusting parameters associated with the vehicle loan. The system can provide selectable gauges that can be used to adjust parameters of the vehicle loan. The gauges can comprise analog displays that include an indicator, such as a needle or graphical blocks. The indicator can be selected and repositioned. The gauges can have a design, shape, and feel that resemble gauges of a vehicle, like an automobile. The gauges can display relative values that simulate relative values found in a vehicle, like an automobile. The system can comprise a three tier computer architecture with a computer server, a back-end system, and a client computer. In one exemplary embodiment, the software can run on the client computer and then access certain graphical files for the gauges that can be stored on the computer server.
