I gave some other comments in another response.  Here is
a re-writing to make my suggestions more concrete.

(Note to all:  Merry Christmas!)


#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

static  void    show_payment_table( double, double, int );

int
main(void){
    show_payment_table( 100000, 7.5, 12 );
    return  0;
}

void
show_payment_table( double amount, double yearly_percentage_rate, int months ){
    double const  monthly_rate  = yearly_percentage_rate / 100 / 12;
    double const  compounded    = pow( 1 + monthly_rate, months );
    double const  adjustment    = compounded / (compounded - 1);
    double const  payment       = amount * monthly_rate * adjustment;

    double balance = amount;

    printf( "\nMonthly payment is: %.2f\n", payment );

    printf( "%10s %14s %13s %10s %14s %12s\n",
        "Month", "Beginning", "Interest", "Total", "Repayment", "Balance"
    );

    for(  int i = 1;  i <= months;  i++  ){
        double const  interest  = balance * monthly_rate;
        double const  owing     = balance + interest;
        double const  remaining = owing - payment;

        printf( "%10d %14.0f %13.0f %10.0f %14.0f %12.0f\n",
            i, balance, interest, owing, payment, remaining
        );
        balance = remaining;
    }
}
