Explanation / Answer

First step is to calculate the EMI or PMT we can use the excel formula for it

=PMT(0.09,4,-20000,0,0) =6137.37

Interest Beg Pricipal = 9%* Beginnig Principal each year

Pricipal red = PMT- Interest

Principal Remainig = Beginnig Pricipal - Principal red

So this how we calculat each step

Year Beg Balance PMT INT Principal red End Bal 1 20000 6,173.37 1,800.00 4,373.37 15,626.63 2 15,626.63 6,173.37 1,406.40 4,766.98 10,859.65 3 10,859.65 6,173.37 977.37 5,196.00 5,663.65 4 5,663.65 6,173.37 509.73 5,663.65 0.00
