CUMIPMT and CUMPRINC function

CUMIPMT Cumulative interest payment function allows you to calculate the interest paid for a loan or from an investment from period A to period B. When getting a loan, CUMIPMT function can be used to calculate the total amount of interest paid in the first five months or from period 12 to period 20. A period can be a month, a week or two week.
