Formulas Required
The template uses advanced Excel formulas for automatic calculations:
- Monthly Payment: `=PMT(Interest_Rate/12, Loan_Term_Months, -Loan_Amount)`
- Principal Portion: `=PPMT(Interest_Rate/12, Payment_Num, Loan_Term_Months, -Loan_Amount)`
- Interest Portion: `=IPMT(Interest_Rate/12, Payment_Num, Loan_Term_Months, -Loan_Amount)`
- Remaining Balance: `=IF(Payment_Num = 1, Loan_Amount - PPMT(...), Previous_Balance - PPMT(...))`
- Variance in Budget Tracker: `=Actual_Spend - Budgeted_Amount`
- Loan Status Conditional Logic: `=IF(Remaining_Balance <= 0, "Repaid", IF(TODAY() > Next_Payment_Date, "Overdue", "Active"))`
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance usability and visual clarity:
- Variance Cells: Red background if negative (over budget), green if positive (under budget).
- Overdue Payments: Highlight in bright red text with bold font.
- Budget Categories: Color-coded by category type (e.g., red for fixed costs, blue for variable).
- Total Loan Amount vs. Event Budget: Use data bars to show relative size of loan compared to total planned expenses.
