Excel I guess this is a pure mathematical issue. At 8% per year the minimum monthly payment (interest only) is 1466.67. Thus, you will never get anything lower than that. You will thus never get down to 1100, no matter how many periods.

- NikolinoDEPlatinum ContributorUnfortunately, I can understand your project even less than Mr. Riny_van_Eekelen.
Maybe it's the translation, but what exactly do you want to achieve?
I sent you the example because it might fit into your project.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.

- ExcelIron ContributorSo, sir is this correct solution which i got 7953 in Term of Month?

Excel I guess not, because you can't get any lower that 1466.67. 100000 months will give you the same amount. My point was that you can never get down to 1100.
