How it is calculated. With monthly rate r = APR/12 and n monthly periods, the payment is P·r / (1 − (1+r)−n). Each month, the interest payment is the previous balance times r, the principal payment is the payment minus that interest, and equity is 1 − balance/principal. These agree with Excel's PPMT and IPMT for end-of-period payments.
