To illustrate the mathematical history of a bond bought at a premium and carried currently on an investment basis, suppose a 6.0% tax-exempt bond, paying interest semiannually March 1 and September 1, with a four-year maturity, is bought March 1, 1978, to yield 4.5%, or a cost of $1,054.40.

This gives it the label "negative amortization." Most loans do not have a negative amortization feature, and are designed to reduce to a zero balance by the end of their terms.

However, the bad thing about negative amortization is that eventually, the mortgage payments may need to increase to allow the larger loan amortize over its remaining life.
