    Lease with residual

    I am trying to construct a table where a loan (say $500,000) is 50% amortised over a given period (say 5 years) at a fixed interest rate. I can't work out the formula which will allow it to calculate interest on the full $500k in the monthly repayments but only make capital repayments on $250k

    I am trying to use PMT. Is that suitable?

    Thanks for any advice.

    OK, that's what I thought but when I run it I don't get the $250k residual (see attached). It's close but no cigar so there must be some other switch somewhere which I'm not seeing...

    If you're paying monthly, the periods should be 60 and the interest 1/12 of annual interest.
