Try this. It should work. Payments will change as you pluck in different
options
1 b c d e
2 Rate Months Years Loan amount
3 8.00% 360 30 300000
4
5 ($2,186.72)
Cell c3= d3*12
Formula cell b5=pmt(b3/12,c3,e3,0,1) 1 at the end varies depending on
payments at the end or beginning of the month.
Good luck

Niek,
Thank you. However, I am still on Microsoft Excel 2000. Is there anyway
to
download or upgrade to 02, or is there a way to still use 2000?
Thanks,
