Before & after
Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.
An amortization schedule shows how a loan gets paid down over time. You'd typically break down each payment into principal and interest portions. The interest is calculated on the remaining balance. You could set this up in a spreadsheet, which is probably the most straightforward approach. You might want to include columns for dates, payment amounts, and remaining balance.
