There are four "variables in loan calculations: starting principle, interest

month's payment will be split between interest and principle.
Sorry, but this is NOT true. Those are enough to calculate the APPROXIMATE amounts but not the exact amounts. There are simply too many other assumptions being made when constructing an amortization table and no way to assume that any two people doing ti will make the same choices. Examples:

a) method? << by "present value" of series of "rents" or by "trial and error" >>
b) where will rounding take place?
c) how will the final payment be figured?
