The Amortization sheet displays a monthly loan schedule according to the loan amount, term in years, and interest rate. The loan details can be easily adjusted in the Decision sheet to see how changes to the terms will impact monthly payments and the duration of the repayment. Users can also see how an extra monthly payment will impact the schedule.
