Amortization Function
To Amortize is to liquidate a debt, such as a mortgage by installment payments.
Amortization is the gradual elimination of a liability, such as a mortgage, in
regular payments over a specified period of time. Such payments must be
sufficient to cover both principal and interest. With the Amortization Function
the V12 can calculate the total amount of principle (liability) and interest paid
after a specified number of installments.
The following steps are required to determine the Amortization status of a loan:
• Push b CLEAR FIN first to reset financial registers of previous data
• Using i or r 12÷ , enter periodic interest rate
• Enter the principal using PV
• Enter the periodic payment, then push CHS PMT
• Select r BEG or r END to set the payment function
