Amortization

Amortization is the process of gradually paying off debt through regular payments over time, where each payment covers both interest and principal. It is commonly applied to loans such as mortgages and business debt. The amortization process ensures that borrowers reduce their debt while managing cash flow, which is critical for financial planning in businesses and real estate investments.
