Andreas, Apologies but I have been in all day zoom calls this week. Horrible business! NPER says: PayType: the type of payment, defaults to 0. It is 0 if payments are due at the end of the period; 1 if they are due at the beginning of the period. PMT says: PayType: the type of payment, defaults to 0. It is 0 if payments are due at the end of the period; 1 if they are due at the beginning of the period. With PayType = 1 the first payment is made on the same day the loan is taken out. Is the sentence "With PayType = 1 the first payment is made on the same day the loan is taken out." redundant? Or does it have some domain in which it makes sense? Thanks!

Yes it is redundant. I think it is intended to emphasize what the previous clause already says. Andreas Sent from my Galaxy
