Can someone explain annual amortization of a term loan?
I'm practicing LBOs for an upcoming interview and notice cell H20. I know how to use it in the calculation but don't know what it means and have trouble understanding from the relevant wikipedia article. Can anyone explain?

Thank you so much as always and SB coming your way for the help.
You have a mandatory payback each year of 1% of principal
Great. Crystal clear. Thank you!
That strikes me as not a lot.
What are the usual ranges of amortization of a term loan?
Why bother with this if it is only 1% over a number of years - does it really have that much of a cumulative benefit?
Sometimes you see a higher amortization, or something that escalates each year. I have seen annual amort of 5%, or something that is like 50% paid back in 3 or 5 years. It all depends on what the borrower and lender think works best and is at market.
I appreciate the clear explanation, thank you again.
