    Arrow Fixed Rate Loan Amortization Table (Alternatives to PMT Function)

    Hello all,

    I am new to VBA so perhaps this is a foolish question. I have created a fixed amortization table using the pmt function with input boxes in vba to return the values. It seems to work well.

    I am wondering what some of the alternative methods are for doing the same thing without using the PMT function. I am looking for some of the easier ways to do this. THe fixed amortization table I created has equal annual installments and the payment begins in the first year. If anyone has a link to a detailed guide that would be even better.

    Appreciate any help.

    Hello Tugboat00,

    The attached workbook will provide you with a fixed rate amortization schedule. You only need to input the loan amount, the annual interest rate and the loan period in years. Click the button and you will create a schedule of payments showing the principal, interest, and balance for each payment.

    Here is the VBA macro to generate the amortization schedule. The attached workbook is a working example.

    Hi Leith,

    Thanks for the response. I have already created something like this though.

    At the moment I am trying to construct a fixed loan amortization table with formulas and which uses the goal seek function. I have found a textbook example but I am running into some problems.

    I get 1004 runtime error for the goal seek part of the code. I have tried fixing this but I am stuck.

    If anyone would be willing to take a look, would you mind if I pm'd the code? I do not want to post it on the forum as I may use it as a template for an assignment later on. Want to avoid those plagiarism checks.

    Any help appreciated.
