Mortgage Payment Calculation

Hi, I've checked the forums....It doesn't appear it's possible to do mortgage amortization, but I'm wondering if it's possible just to calculate a simple monthly payment based on # years, rate, and price? I can't believe there's nothing in Power BI to do this--or so it appears (or DAX).

    Hi FAIRFIELD1511 

    I modify my formula according to this article.

    Assume the second line is :

    you borrow 25000 at 0.0425 rate for 30 years,

    then formula for part1-part3 are as follows:

    monthly rate = [yearly rate]/12
    
    part1 = POWER(1+[monthly rate],[years]*12)-1
    
    part2 = [monthly rate]*POWER(1+[monthly rate],[years]*12)
    
    part3 = [part1]/[part2]
    
    Loan payment monthly = [loan amt]/[part3]

    Hi saturation 

    Could you show some data example or details of your requirement?

     

    There are some examples of Mortgage Payment Calculation in Power BI:

      The loan calculator is pretty close. Basically, here's what I've got (static data, no need for the sliders).

       

      ID  |  Loan Amt  |   Years   |    Rate     |     Monthly Pymt   |   Interest

      1        10000            5             .0375   |         150                |     20

      2         25000           30           .0425    |         250             |       35

       

      The Monthly Pymt and Interest columns are the data that I need....Thoughts?
