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.
You can ask your lender for an amortization schedule, but this might not be as helpful if you're looking to see how extra payments could impact that 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.
=PMT(5%/12,3012,180000) The rate argument is 5% divided by the 12 months in a year. The NPER argument is 3012 for a 30 year mortgage with 12 monthly payments made each year.
