A brief introduction of PMT, IPMT and PPMT Excel functions
A brief introduction
of PMT, IPMT and
PPMT Excel
functions
MS Excel – PMT Function(WS,
VBA)
• In Excel, the PMT function returns the payment amount for a
loan based on an interest rate and a constant payment
schedule.
• The syntax for the PMT function is:
• PMT( interest_rate, number_payments, PV, [FV], [Type] )
• interest_rate is the interest rate for the loan.
• number_payments is the number of payments for the loan.
• PV is the present value or principal of the loan.
• FV is optional. It is the future value or the loan amount
outstanding after all payments have been made. If this
parameter is omitted, the PMT function assumes a FV value of
0.
• Type is optional. It indicates when the payments are
due. Type can be one of the following values:
• If the Type parameter is omitted, the PMT function assumes
a Type value of 0.
Value Explanation
0 Payments are due at the end of the
period. (default)
1 Payments are due at the beginning
of the period.
• Applies To:
Excel 2010, Excel 2007, Excel 2003, Excel XP, Excel 2000
• Type of Function:
Worksheet function (WS)
VBA function (VBA)
Worksheet Function Example
• Let’s take a look at an example to how you would use
the PMT function in a worksheet:
• This first example returns the monthly payment on a $5,000
loan at an annual rate of 7.5%. The loan is paid off in 2 years
(ie: 2 x 12). All payments are made at the beginning of the
period.
• =PMT(7.5%/12, 2*12, 5000, 0, 1)
•
Worksheet Function Example
• This next example returns the weekly payment on a $8,000
loan at an annual rate of 6%. The loan is paid off in 4 years (ie:
4 x 52). All payments are made at the end of the period.
• =PMT(6%/52, 4*52, 8000, 0, 0)
• This next example returns the annual payment on a $6,500
loan at an annual rate of 5.25%. The loan is paid off in 10 years
(ie: 10 x 1). All payments are made at the end of the period.
• =PMT(5.25%/1, 10*1, 6500, 0, 0)
Worksheet Function Example
• This final example returns the monthly payment on a $5,000
loan at an annual rate of 8%. The loan is paid on for 3 years
(ie: 3 x 12) with a remaining balance on the loan of $1,000
after the 3 years. All payments are made at the end of the
period.
• =PMT(8%/12, 3*12, 5000, -1000, 0)
VBA Function Example
• The PMT function can also be used in VBA code. For example:
• Dim LValue As Currency
• LValue = Pmt(0.08/12, 3*12, 5000, -1000, 0)

MS Excel: IPMT Function (WS,
VBA)
• In Excel, the IPMT function returns the interest payment for
an investment based on an interest rate and a constant
payment schedule.
• The syntax for the IPMT function is:
• IPMT( interest_rate, period, number_payments, PV, [FV],
[Type] )
• interest_rate is the interest rate for the investment.
• period is the period to calculate the interest rate. It must be a value
between 1 and number_payments.
• number_payments is the number of payments for the annuity.
• PV is the present value of the payments.
• FV is optional. It is the future value that you’d like the investment to be
after all payments have been made. If this parameter is omitted,
the IPMT function will assume a FV of 0.
• Type is optional. It indicates when the payments are
due. Type can be one of the following values:
• If the Type parameter is omitted, the IPMT function assumes
a Type value of 0.
Value Explanation
0 Payments are due at the end of the period. (default)
1 Payments are due at the beginning of the period.
• Applies To:
• Excel 2010, Excel 2007, Excel 2003, Excel XP, Excel 2000
• Type of Function:
• Worksheet function (WS)
• VBA function (VBA)
Worksheet Function
Example
• This first example returns the interest payment for a $5,000 investment
that earns 7.5% annually for 2 years. The interest payment is calculated
for the 8th month and payments are due at the end of each month.
• =IPMT(7.5%/12, 8, 2*12, 5000)
• This next example returns the interest payment for a $8,000 investment
that earns 6% annually for 4 years. The interest payment is calculated
for the 30th week and payments are due at the beginning of each week.
• =IPMT(6%/52, 30, 4*52, 8000, 0 ,1)
• This next example returns the interest payment for a $6,500
investment that earns 5.25% annually for 10 years. The
interest payment is calculated for the 4th year and payments
are due at the end of each year.
• =IPMT(5.25%/1, 4, 10*1, 6500)
VBA Function Example
• The IPMT function can also be used in VBA code. For example:
• Dim LNumber As Currency
• LNumber = IPmt(0.0525/1, 4, 10*1, 6500)
MS Excel: PPMT Function (WS,
VBA)
• In Excel, the PPMT function returns the payment on the
principal for a particular payment based on an interest rate
and a constant payment schedule.
• The syntax for the PPMT function is:
• PPMT( interest_rate, period, number_payments, PV, [FV],
[Type] )
• interest_rate is the interest rate for the loan.
• period is the period used to determine how much principal has been
repaid. Period must be a value between 1 and number_payments.
• number_payments is the number of payments for the loan.
• PV is the present value or principal of the loan.
• FV is optional. It is the future value or the loan amount outstanding
after all payments have been made. If this parameter is omitted,
the PPMT function assumes a FV value of 0.
• Type is optional. It indicates when the payments are
due. Type can be one of the following values:
• If the Type parameter is omitted, the PPMT function assumes
a Type value of 0.
Value Explanation
0 Payments are due at the end of the
period. (default)
1 Payments are due at the beginning
of the period.
• Applies To:
• Excel 2010, Excel 2007, Excel 2003, Excel XP, Excel 2000
• Type of Function:

• VBA function (VBA)
Worksheet Function
Example
• This first example returns the amount of principal paid off by the
payment made in the 5th month of a $5,000 loan with monthly
payments at an annual interest rate of 7.5%. The loan is to be paid off in
2 years (ie: 2 x 12). All payments are made at the beginning of the
period.
• =PPMT(7.5%/12, 5, 2*12, 5000, 0, 1)
• This next example returns the amount of principal paid off by the
payment made in the 20th week of a $8,000 loan with weekly payments
at an annual interest rate of 6%. The loan is to be paid off in 4 years (ie:
4 x 52). All payments are made at the end of the period.
• =PPMT(6%/52, 20, 4*52, 8000, 0, 0)
• This next example returns the amount of principal paid off by the payment made in the 4th
year of a $6,500 loan with annual payments at an annual interest rate of 5.25%. The loan is
to be paid off in 10 years (ie: 10 x 1). All payments are made at the end of the period.
• =PPMT(5.25%/1, 4, 10*1, 6500, 0, 0)
• This final example returns the
• amount of principal paid off by the payment made in the 14th month of a $5,000 loan with
annual payments at an annual interest rate of 8%. The loan is to be paid off in 3 years (ie: 3
x 12) with a remaining balance on the loan of $1,000 after the 3 years. All payments are
made at the end of the period.
• =PPMT(8%/12, 14, 3*12, 5000, 1000, 0)
VBA Function Example
• The PPMT function can also be used in VBA code. For
example:
• Dim LValue As Currency
• LValue = PPmt(0.08/12, 14, 3*12, 5000, 1000, 0)
