- Each period, interest = outstanding balance x 0.541667%; the rest of the payment reduces principal.
- Payment 1: 135.42 interest and 22.6 principal.
- From payment 233 onwards more of each payment goes to principal than to interest.
- The balance is half repaid by payment 257.
- Year 1 ends with 24720.53 outstanding, 1.12% of the loan retired.
