Who needs it?
This program is for anyone who ever sat down with a
calculator, a calendar, a yellow pad, a cup of coffee and a bottle of
aspirin in an attempt to calculate daily interest on any debt with
frequently changing balances and payments.
Can be used by lawyers, accountants, lumber yards, vehicle
dealers, private lenders, employer/employee loans .... the list is endless.

Try using the other brand!
It's possible that the world's leading spread
sheet program has the ability to calculate daily interest on
changing balances with irregular payments and changing interest
rates, but try doing it twice in a row with even slightly different
facts. And try figuring out how to do it even once without
wasting days of your time when all you want is to get that "simple
little calculation" over and done and out the door.

Details for Interest Calculating feature
(Note: This interest calculating feature can easily be used
for calculating interest on any series of irregular payment transactions,
including calculating interest on past due child support.)
Specify Simple or Compound Interest (compound monthly or
annually)
Apply payments (1) first to interest, then to past due and
current principal; (2) first to current month obligation, then to interest, then
to past due principal; or (3) first to past due and current month principal,
then to interest.
Apply a particular payment in some order different that the
order in which the other payments are applied. (can be used for special
treatment of child support "tax intercept" transactions or for any specially
designated payment)
|
Change the interest rate in mid-stream of a
series of transactions.
Add a short text description to any or all transactions.
Easy entry for monthly, twice per month, every other week,
weekly, first and fifteenth transactions
Optional "delay" for calculating interest on payments received
within 30 or 31 days of their due dates. (for child support interest
calculations in Illinois and Texas and certain other states)
Optional setting to calculate monthly rather than daily
interest, with payment considered as timely if paid during the month it falls
due.
