FAQ
Key Excel functions (PMT, PPMT, IPMT) are used to calculate total payments, principal, and interest for each period in an amortization schedule.
Use the PMT function in Excel to create the formula: PMT(rate, nper, pv, fv, type). 1 This formula lets you calculate monthly payments when you divide the annual interest rate by 12, for the number of months in a year.
Even a single extra payment made each year can reduce the amount of interest and shorten the amortization, as long as the payment goes toward the principal and not the interest.
Ideally, you want your extra payments to go towards the principal amount. However, many lenders will apply the extra payments to any interest accrued since your last payment and then apply anything left over to the principal amount. Other times, lenders may apply extra funds to next month's payment.
How to create an Excel sheet to track payments Open a new Excel spreadsheet. Create column headings for the following information. Enter the payment information into the spreadsheet. Use formulas to calculate the total amount of payments received and the total amount of outstanding payments.
Fortunately, Excel can be used to create an amortization schedule. The amortization schedule template below can be used for a variable number of periods, as well as extra payments and variable interest rates.
