Example 1-Â Formula for the Monthly Mortgage Payment in Excel
Consider that, you want to start a business and take a loan: $150,000 (C7).
The annual interest rate is 6% (C8), the duration is 2 years (C9) and the loan is paid monthly.
Use the PMT function.
STEPS:
- Select a cell to calculate the monthly payment. Here, C13.
- Enter the formula.
=PMT(C8/C10,C11,C7,0)
- Press Enter.
- The monthly mortgage payment is displayed.
2. Excel Mortgage Formula to Fixed Periodic Payment
The loan amount is $150,000 (C7).
The annual interest rate is 6% (C8), the duration is 2 years (C9) and the total number of months is 12 (C10).
Calculate the fixed periodic payment:
STEPS:
- Select a cell to calculate the monthly payment. Here, C12.
- The generic formula for a fixed periodic payment is:
=loan amount((rate of interest/number of payment per year)*(1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan))/((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan)-1)
- Enter the formula.
=C7*((C8/C10)*(1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9))/((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-1)
- Press Enter.
- The fixed periodic payment is displayed.
3. Find Out Excel Outstanding Loan Balance
To find the outstanding loan balance, slight modifications were made to the dataset: the loan amount was decreased and the duration of the loan increased.
Calculate the outstanding loan amount with one intermediate period.
STEPS:
- Select a cell to see the result. Here, C13.
- The generic formula for a fixed periodic payment is:
=loan amount((rate of interest/number of payment per year)*(1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan))-((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan)-1))
- Enter the formula.
=(C7*((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-(1+C8/C10)^(C10*C11))/((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-1))
- Press Enter.
- The result is displayed in C13.
Example 4 – Using a Mortgage Formula to Calculate the Monthly Payments for a Credit Card Debt
Use the PMT function.
Consider the due balance and the annual interest rate in C7 and C8.

- Press Enter.
This is the output.
Example 5 – Using an Excel Mortgage Formula to calculate the Principal Amount Repayment in the 24th Month
The principal to be repaid in the 24th month can be computed by deducting the outstanding balance after two years from the outstanding balance after 23 months.
STEPS:
- Calculate the loan balance in period 1. Select C14.
- The generic formula for a fixed periodic payment is:
=loan amount((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan))-((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*intermediate period 2))/(((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan)-1)
- Enter the formula:
=(C7*((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-(1+C8/C10)^(C10*C11))/((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-1))
- Press Enter.
- The generic formula for a fixed periodic payment is:
=loan amount((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan))-((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(intermediate period 2))/((1+rate of interest/number of payment per year)^(number of payment per year*life loan)-1)
- For the loan balance in period 2, the formula is:
=(C7*((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-(1+C8/C10)^(C12))/((1+C8/C10)^(C10*C9)-1))
- Press Enter.
- Subtract the loan balance in period 1 from the loan balance in period 2. The formula will be:
=C15-C14
- Press Enter.
- You will see the result.
