Can anyone help me with the formula that will allow me to figure out the balance on a loan or credit card after each payment, without creating a loop? i.e. BALANCE=1000.00 PAYMENT=-100.00 INTEREST=+10.00 NEW BALANCE=910.00(The problem is the "NEW BALANCE" needs to go to the "BALANCE" now. and each "PAYMENT" is an accumulated total.(In January "PAYMENT"=100.00, in February "PAYMENT" equals 200.00, etc.) At the end of the year the result will display the current balance, total of monthly payments, total interest paid.

Hi Slaw!

A1: Payment
B1: Interest
C1: Balance
C2: 1000 (Opening Balance)
A3: -100 (Payment)
B3: 10 (Interest)
C3: =C2+A3+B3 (Running Balance)


Often the column A and (especially) B items will be calculations

I have a spreadsheet that is a mortgage calculator that
does this. The formula's can be looked at in the
schedual sheets. The VBA just makes those sheets, the
formulas do the work. It is at www.kjtfs.com in the
downloads section, it is called mortgage calculator.
Hope it helps.

Hi Chris!

Sent a quick and dirty credit card calculator with inputs of:

Loan
Effective Rate per Month
Min % repayment
Min $ repayment
Rounding amount

John Walkenbach's Excel Formulas 2003 covers a lot of the basics of
these calculations.
