Although you see no IF, the Boolean formula in E2 of the attached file means that "One-month interest is calculated on the arrears, only if such arrears are more than zero". See the effect of that formula in the snapshot below:

Hi Twifoo
We need to round up that figure. So if it is 22.49, it should reflect 22. If 22.51, it should reflect 23.
Also, we cannot add interest on previous interest amount hence, from arrears, we have to deduct previous interest till arrears is >0. Once arrears is <=0, we need to stop deducting interest from arrears.
Thanks.
