Debt planner not calculating correctly

New to this. I have one line item in the debt planner for about $1050 that I’m paying $100/mo on. Debt planner lists a > 30 Years payoff, -436,351 est total interest, and recommended payment of -$4340. All the other line items look fine. Any clues?
Thanks,

Is it possible you have a bad value input for the interest rate (e.g. 25% entered as “25” instead of “.25”)?

Hi Randy,
No. Even if I change the interest rate to 0%, the incorrect values display.

Thanks,
Will

My two guesses would be a sign (positive/negative) issue or a damaged template. Have you tried restoring the template— make sure to archive the existing one (rather than overwriting) so you don’t lose your loan data.

Hi Randy,
I just upgraded the template (archived the old one). I think not having in a budget amount in the budget field was causing the problems and it is working now after populating that field (in the latest template version).

Thanks,
Will
