Bi-Weekly Loans

Your calculator includes a Bi-Weekly loan function (

s T

) that

allows you to convert established, fully amortized monthly loans into
Bi-Weeklies (in which one-half the monthly payment is made every
two weeks). Because you make two extra half-payments per year
(i.e., 26 Bi-Weekly payments is like making 13 payments/year),
these kinds of loans can amount to large interest savings and a sub-
stantial reduction in the time it takes to pay them off.

You begin these problems by setting up the initial monthly loan and
then pressing

s T

. The first press of

T

displays the Bi-Weekly

term, the second press shows the total interest

savings

over the entire

loan, a third press calculates the total interest paid, a fourth press
shows the total principal paid, and a fifth press shows the total prin-
cipal and interest. Press the

p

key to find the Bi-Weekly payment.
