FAQ
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.
The formula to be used will be =IPMT( 5%/12, 1, 60, 50000). In the example above: As the payments are made monthly, it was necessary to convert the annual interest rate of 5% into a monthly rate (=5%/12), and the number of periods from years to months (=512).
If you prepay your mortgage you reduce the principal balance, reducing the interest due next month and every month forward. If you prepay $1000 on your mortgage, the interest next month will be reduced by 10003.7%/12=3.08 You will still make the same payment, but an additional 3.083 will be credited toward principal.
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.
Excel's built-in functions and templates streamline the scheduling process, making it a highly efficient scheduling tool. By leveraging formulas for hourly calculations, copy-and-paste options, and utilizing templates for recurring schedules, managers can quickly create a schedule for their team.
