The month is the closing costs divided by the monthly saving. A lower payment can still cost more over the whole loan if the new term is longer, which is why both interest totals are shown; a negative last figure is a saving. It assumes fixed rates, costs paid in cash and both loans kept to the end. Tax, and what the cash could have earned, are left out. It does not say whether to refinance.
