Key Excel functions (PMT, PPMT, IPMT) are used to calculate total payments, principal, and interest for each period in an amortization schedule.
The PMT function in Excel determines the total payment owed each period—inclusive of the interest and principal payment. The total payment, unlike the other two components, will remain constant over the entire borrowing term.
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.

Example of Amortization In the first month, $75 of the $664.03 monthly payment goes to interest. The remaining $589.03 goes toward the principal. The total payment stays the same each month, while the portion going to principal increases and the portion going to interest decreases.
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.
