Excel PMT Function

PMT function is very useful for calculating monthly payment required to payback a loan or mortgage at a fixed rate. This function require a minimum of three inputs, periodic rate, number of periods, present value or the loan amount. Here is a simple example. Home Loan: 350,000.00 Interest rate: 4.5% Number of years to repay the loan: 25 Note: To calculate monthly payment, we need to find the monthly rate and number of months as shown above. Then it is simply a matter of substituting the values into the payment function, as shown in the formula view below.

CUMIPMT and CUMPRINC function

CUMIPMT Cumulative interest payment function allows you to calculate the interest paid for a loan or from an investment from period A to period B. When getting a loan, CUMIPMT function can be used to calculate the total amount of interest paid in the first five months or from period 12 to period 20. A period can be a month, a week or two week. Loan Amount : 350,000.00 APR: 4.5% Down payment: 0.00 Years: 25 Payment per year: 12 From the above data, we can calculate the following: No of Period: 25 × 12 = 300 Periodic Rate: 4.5/12 = 0.375% Here is how you will substitute these values into the function. = CUMIPMT (periodic rate, No of period, vehicle price, start period, end period,  ) = CUMIPMT (0.375, 300, 350000, 1, 5, 0) In an excel worksheet, we use cell address instead of actual values as shown below: Here is the formula view of the worksheet: CUMPRINC Another related function is CUMPRINC. CUMPRINC function is used to calculate cumul
