General Electric got a SR 100, 000, 000 loan repaid
over a 5-year period at 0.5% per month interest.
What is the difference in the amount of interest in the second
month’s payment if interest is charged on the principle of the loan
rather on the unrecovered balance?
Basically there are two ways of charging interest. One is on the opening balance of the loan on each month and one is to charge the fixed interest on the loan amount at the very beginning.
