could you also add additional column for the remaining capital per month? then make the month as semi monthly
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:23
ok this is noted
User 04/05/2018 - 02:23
but still the interest was based on a month
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:23

Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:29
Is it want you want to have?
User 04/05/2018 - 02:29
yeah thats looks great
User 04/05/2018 - 02:30
what was that the another column with the Principal Header?
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:30
oh that was your capital divided only into 24
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:31
since our table was payment for semi monthly for the whole year
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:31
in order to get the total payment per semi monthly we need to get that and add the interest
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:32
i made the interest as 2.5% since it was semi monthly, so it will be 5% for the whole month
User 04/05/2018 - 02:32
I see thanks it looks awesome
User 04/05/2018 - 02:33
does the table will change if I change the principal?
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:33
yes you may try it
User 04/05/2018 - 02:33
ok
User 04/05/2018 - 02:34
it was nice
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:34
thank you :)
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:35
payment there was the sum of the Pincipal coumn & the interest column
Excelchat Expert 04/05/2018 - 02:36
then for the Capital column, that was your remaining balance per semi monthly when we decrease the payment for the previous period
User 04/05/2018 - 02:36
yeah great I love this one
User 04/05/2018 - 02:36
