Default PMT formula help

It matters in the fact that when you get to larger loan amount the monthly
repayment can have as much as a hundred dollar difference in payment. You
can not just adjust the interest rate. But it does work when you compute the
interest compounding daily payable at the end of each month. Thanks for
your input.

How did you get that?

I'm not sure the 365/360 matters. If you do not pay monthly but every period (however defined), than the formula is correct, as
you can easily check by setting up an amortization table.
But maybe you want to tweak the interest%. Question is How?
