Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of installment notes: Installment notes are a type of loan where the borrower makes periodic payments to the lender over a specified period. These payments typically consist of two components: principal and interest.

Define principal: The principal is the original amount borrowed or the remaining balance of the loan that needs to be repaid. Each payment reduces the principal amount owed.

Define interest: Interest is the cost of borrowing money, calculated as a percentage of the outstanding principal. It compensates the lender for providing the loan.

Explain the structure of periodic payments: Each periodic payment on an installment note includes a portion allocated to reducing the principal and a portion allocated to paying the interest accrued on the outstanding balance.

Clarify why service fees are not included: Service fees are not typically part of the periodic payments on installment notes. These fees, if applicable, are usually separate charges and not part of the principal and interest components.
