Amortization Table

Hi, I feel like I'm missing something very elementary but my brain's not functioning properly. I've got this table due tomorrow but not quite sure where I'm going wrong. I'm certain it's something to do with the loop but can't quite figure it out.

Here's my code:

I'm just testing my program for the first 10 months before I modify it to to the full 360 months (30 years), but the numbers are still nowehre near what is expected. Can anyone help me?
