    Discrepancy in PMT function ( annual payment and monthly payment)

    Why the monthly payment multiplied by 12 is not equal to annual payment calculated with PMT funtion.

    E.x:

    Rate: 5%
    Period: 10 years
    Loan Amount: $1,000,000

    PMT(5/12,10*12,1000000)*12 is not equal to PMT(5,10,1000000)

    Thanks

    I assume you meant

    PMT(5%/12, 10*12, 1000000) * 12 and PMT(5%, 10, 1000000

    You pay more interest with annual rather than monthly payments.
