FA-58431 / Loan amortization schedules / Open access

Interest-only period with funding stub: amortization term · case 01

The amortizing payment is too small and a large final payment remains.

ROOT CAUSE

The payment is leveled over the whole loan term including the interest-only months.

THE FAILURE

The payment is leveled over the whole loan term including the interest-only months.

Unsuccessful approach: Reducing principal by interest-only payments treats interest as if it repaid principal.

Case contract

x = {'principal', 'rate_bp', 'io_months' >= 1, 'amort_months' >= 1, 'fund_day' 1..30}. IO month m pays interest round_half_up(P*bp*days/(120000*30)) with days = 31 - fund_day for the first IO month and 30 otherwise. Then the level payment on the full principal over amort_months (exact annuity, half-up) amortizes with monthly interest round_half_up(balance*bp/120000); the last month pays balance + interest. Return {'io_bills': list of IO payments, 'payment', 'final_payment', 'total_interest'}.

Why this case matters

Amortization engines drive borrower statements, payoff quotes and investor remittances; a misplaced rounding step, boundary or ordering rule compounds across hundreds of periods.

HELD IN THE MEMBER ARCHIVE

The verified repair and its recorded checks are member-only.

This mechanism has 7 recorded checks per implementation. The open-access tier publishes the failure and the unsuccessful fix; the repaired source that passes every check, and the observations that prove it, are available to members.

Every case sharing this mechanism uses the same contract and the same repair, so this one record is held back for all of them.

Member access is invitation-based. Sign in with your invited account to inspect the repair.

Verification & scope

A deterministic bounded teaching model with stipulated toy lending rules stated in the contract; money is integer cents and rates are basis points; it makes no claim of conformance to any regulation, servicing standard or product. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.

Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:46:26.711159+00:00.
