Uma Nota Sobre Amortização de Dívidas: Juros Compostos e Anatocismo

Abstract

Motivated by the debate whether or not the amortization system of constant payments, which in Brazil is known as Tabela Price, conforms with the principle of compound interest and implies what the judiciary names as anatocism, that is incorporation of interest to the loan principal, this note, considering a more general system of loan repayment, aims to shed some light on the subject. © Jul-Set 2013.
