It's been a long time but the gnucash developers have asked for more
information on this bug. I've tried to reproduce this bug using your
data from the Debian bug report and I get payments in the final window
of £1,442.41 - just as upstream did.
I think there is some kind of misunderstanding between what you are
describing and what others are trying to do to replicate the bug. This
bug cannot be fixed until the developers upstream can replicate the same
calculation.
You say you are paying Tax and Insurance - what values?
I've tried sample values in Tax and Insurance without seeing the bug you
have reported.
I can create the problem without specifying Tax and Insurance.
I currently have 1.8.12-8 installed, which is the latest 1.8 version
available. I actively use the app, so I'm not pulling in 1.9.5.
1) Click on Action->Scheduled Transactions->Mortgage&Loan repayment
2) Click next
3) Choose a liability loan account
4) set amount to 269000.00
5) set interest rate to 4.995
6) set type to fixed (this is the default)
7) Use current day as start date
8) set length to 360
Months remaining should show 360
9) Click next (brings up options page)
10) Click next (brings up replayments page - no need to choose options to show
the bug)
11) Amount field shows: pmt( 0.04995 / 12 : 360 : 269000.00 : 0 : 0 )
Name: Loan
Payment from: your favorite bank acct
Principal to:Liabilities
Interest to: same bank acct
Start date: today
every 1 month
on the 2nd (since today is the 2nd)
I expect to see these values.
12) Click next
