2. Amortization Schedule: Displays a month-by-month breakdown of each loan payment, showing principal and interest portions, cumulative payments, and remaining balance.
3. Loan Summary Dashboard: A visual overview with key metrics (total cost of loan, total interest paid, average monthly payment) and charts summarizing all active loans.
4. Office Budget Integration: Links loan data to an office-wide budgeting framework—showing how each loan impacts monthly departmental allocations.
5. Instructions & Help Guide: Provides a step-by-step guide, formula explanations, and troubleshooting tips.

Table Structures & Data Types

This table collects user inputs for a single loan:

2. Amortization Schedule (Main Calculation Sheet)

This dynamically generated table includes the following columns:

Required Formulas

• PMT Function: Used in the "Loan Details" sheet to calculate monthly payment: =PMT(Annual_Rate/12, Loan_Term, -Principal)
• Monthly Interest Rate: Derived as: =Annual Interest Rate / 12
• Interest Payment (Period): =Previous Balance * Monthly Rate
• Principal Payment (Period): =Fixed Payment – Interest Payment
• Cumulative Interest: SUM of all interest payments up to a given period.
• Total Cost of Loan: =SUM(Payment Amount) over all periods or: Principal + Total Interest Paid.

Conditional Formatting

To enhance usability and highlight critical financial information, the following conditional formatting rules are applied:

• High Interest Payments: Any interest payment above 30% of total payment is highlighted in red.
• Overdue Status (simulated): If a payment date is past the current date and status is "Pending," the row turns orange.
• Last Payment Row: The final period’s row has a green background to indicate full repayment.
• Balances Below Zero: Flagged in red if accidentally entered (data validation ensures this doesn’t happen).
