Abstract
This paper presents an Excel-based learning exercise to build amortization tables with mortgage prepayments. Periodic and one-time prepayments are considered. Students analyze how the application of prepayments changes the cost and term of a mortgage. Essential financial literacy and spreadsheet skills that are highly valued by households and employers are demonstrated in this exercise.
