AMORTIZATION Schedule for big purchases

Amortization is the process of allocating the cost of an asset over a period of time. It also refers to the repayment of loan principal over time. Typically amortization is used when you are requiring an asset that has a big price tag that you would pay over time. For example, if you were going to take out new machinery for your business or something personal like taking out a mortgaging for a house.
 
An Amortization Schedule shows the beginning and ending balances of the loan and the amount of payment that is applied to the principal and interest during each payment period. The amortization schedule would show the amount that the loan would be paid off during an amount of time. Each installment goes toward a portion of the loan’s interest and its principal.
Some benefits of using amortization schedule when considering making a big purchase are:

• Offer a clear set of monthly payments.
• Exposed to different amortization schedules that allow flexibility depending on their financial power.
• Pay less interest over the remaining amount of the principle (loan). As the loan balance decreases, the amount of the interest that is also accruing decreases.
