4.1 Amortization
Amortization is a debt-repayment scheme wherein the original amount loaned is repaid by making equal
payments in equal periods of time.
Objectives
Key Concepts
Ai
R= −n
1−1i
where
A is the amount loaned
i is the interest rate per period
n is the total number of payment periods
• We have two formulas for determining the outstanding balance OB k at the end of any
period k :
OB k = R[ 1−1i− n− k
i ]
and
OB k = A1i −R
k
[ 1ik −1
i ]
The first formula is used when n is known. You use the second if n is not known or
n is not exact.

• The part of the k th regular payment which goes to the payment of interest is given by
IP k = OB k−1 i
PRk =R−IP k
Problem
A Php15,000 loan at 12% compounded quarterly is to be amortized every 3 months for 1.5
years. Find the quarterly payment and construct an amortization table.
Solution
First, we get R.

R =
1−1i−n
15,000.03
= −6
1−1.03
=2768.96
Next, we construct the amortization schedule.

2 2768.96
3 2768.96
4 2768.96
5 2768.96
6 2768.96
Step 3:
• Get the interest payment for the first period: (15,000)(.03) = 450.
• Subtract this from the regular payment to get the principal repayment for the first
period: 2768.96 – 450 = 2318.96.
• Finally, deduct the principal repayment 2318.96 from the debt to get the outstanding
balance at the end of the first period: 15,000 – 2318.96 = 12681.04.
• Place these values on the table.
Step 4: Repeat the Step 3 for the other rows to get the following:
The outstanding balance at the end of the term (end of 6th period) is 0.

a) Find the quarterly payment.
b) Find the outstanding balance after the 13th payment.
c) How much of the 16th payment goes to interest payment?
d) How much of the 16th payment is repayment of principal?
e) Find the total interest charged on the loan.

e) Total interest = Total payments – Total debts. Here, we have 26 regular payments of
1650.53 and a debt equal to 25,000. Hence

an interest rate of 4% compounded quarterly. Find the quarterly payment.
2. Semi-annual payments of Php96,000 each are used to repay a loan for 4 years at 5%
compounded semi-annually. Find the amount of the loan.

of principal?
4. A loan is to be amortized by equal payments of Php50,000 each at the end of six
months for 10 years. If the interest is based on 7% compounded semi-annually, find:
a) the present value of the loan;

c) the remaining liability after 8 years.

a) Hence, there will be 9 regular payments of Php1,250 plus a final irregular payment.
b) The final payment will be due on the 10th period. (Note: Generally, we assume that
the final payment is due one period after the last regular payment).
c) The final payment, which we denote by x , is given by:
x = OB 9 1.075

b) find the outstanding liability in 5 years.
c) how much of the 6th payment is for the principal?
d) how much interest will be paid to discharge the loan?

OB 5 =7800 1.08 −1500

c) This is PR 6 .
PR 6 = R− IP 6
= 1500−OB 5i
= 1500−2660.86.08
= 1287.13
d) Total interest = Total payments – Total debts. Here, we have 6 regular payments of
1500 and one (still unknown) final irregular payment. The debt is equal to P7,800.
The final irregular payment is given by

A sinking fund is one which is generated by making periodic deposits. The deposits may be regular or irregular.
However, in this discussion, we assume that the amount of any sinking fund deposit is the same, that is, they
form an ordinary annuity.

earning 6% effective. Find the annual deposit and construct a sinking fund schedule.
2. To pay for plant expansion, a factory manager estimates that Php25M will be needed in
6 ½ years. He decides that the factory should invest a sum every 3 months in a fund.
Interest is earned at 12% converted quarterly.
a) How much is the quarterly investment?
b) How much will be in the fund after the 10th deposit?
c) How much interest is earned on the 8th deposit date?

3. A Php200,000 loan at 8% effective interest rate is to be repaid in 5 years through a
sinking fund. Equal deposits are made each year into a fund that earns 7% effective.
Find the total annual cost of the loan.
4. A Php100,000 loan is to be repaid in lump sum in 8 years. The lender charges 10%
interest payable semi-annually. The debtor decides to pay the interest semi-annually
and to repay the principal by creating a sinking fund.
a) How much is the debtor’s semi-annual expense if the fund is invested at 9%
compounded semi-annually?
b) How much will be in the fund after the 10th deposit?
i A=i s R=C If the interest rate on the loan is the same as the rate on the sinking
fund, the periodic costs of the two methods are equal.
i Ai s RC When the debtor pays an interest rate higher than the earning rate on
the sinking fund, the periodic cost in the amortization method is less
than that in the sinking fund method.
Exercises
Also, find which method is cheaper and how much the debtor can save semi-annually
by choosing it.
