Amortization schedules work like the following. Assume your loan amount is $150,000, your interest rate is 7%, and your term is 30 years. Schedules will show you that your monthly payment will be $997. It may also tell you that your monthly interest is $581, your interest paid at the end of the first year will be $9,584, and that by the time your loan is repaid you will have paid $209,263. Good schedules will even show you the amount of principal you are paying versus the amount of interest every month. In the first month with this loan you would pay $122 of your monthly payment to principal but the rest of the $997 towards interest. By the end of the loan term, $992 would be paid to the principal while only $5 would be towards interest.

For a good idea of your repayment schedules picture you can print your amortization for each year of your loan. Each of the years will reflect a different amount of interest paid that you can deduct on your taxes. If you are only interested in getting a feel for what the payments might look like on a new loan, you should consider running an amortization table for a fifteen year loan versus a thirty year loan to see the difference in interest paid over the life of the loan. Typically you will see that the interest paid is about double for a thirty-year loan.
An Amortization table is just another term for amortization schedules. An amortization print out is simply a good way to determine what you will be paying in interest every month vs. what you will be paying in principal. On your schedules you will see very clearly the effects of small changes in your interest rate.
