Behind the Excel sheet

Total Number of Days:

It was the sum 2016 + 2017 + 3 months of 2018

                             19 + 365   + 31 + 28 + 4

Exact Intrest on Loan

the Borrowed Amount is multiplied by Exact Intrest Rate multiplied by Total Number of Days divided by Number of Days in a Year

$30,000 x 0.0475 x (447/365)
