Case contract

x = {'principal', 'rate_bp', 'months' n, 'forbear': [start_month, count], 'mode': 'capitalize'|'defer'}. Months before start_month are paid with the level payment (exact annuity, half-up, interest round_half_up(balance*bp/120000)). During the count forbearance months interest accrues on the unchanged balance, rounded monthly, without compounding. The remaining payment count n - (start - 1) is preserved (term extended). capitalize: accrued interest is added to the balance and the payment re-leveled over the remaining count; defer: accrued interest goes to a non-interest bucket and the payment is unchanged. Return {'balance', 'deferred', 'payment'}.

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.
