What happened when the loan of more than 2,000 yuan was repaid for the first time and the loan balance only decreased in 400 yuan?
Your repayment should be in the form of equal principal and interest repayment, so the first repayment is more than 2,000 yuan, most of which is interest, and only 400 yuan is principal, so the loan balance you see decreases very little, because the principal and interest are the same every month. At first, the principal was less and the interest was more. Later, the interest was less and the principal was more.
