• Push b AMORT (will display amount from payments that will be
applied to interest)
• Push x↔y (will display amount from payments that will be applied to
principal)
• Push R↓ R↓ (will display number of payments to be amortized)

If you repeat the Amortization function after an initial calculation, the V12 picks
up where you left off. In other words, after you calculate the interest and
principle paid after one year, the V12 resets the present value of the loan to the
principle after one year. Calculation of Amortization will start from this point.
A common application of the Amortization function is to determine the amount
of interest and principle paid on a mortgage for a given time period. The
example below illustrates a 30 year loan with a principle of $400,000, a 6%
annual interest rate, and monthly payment of $2,398.20. The task is to
determine the interest and principle paid after 5 years or 60 months.
