    Need help on this school assignment on for loop

    This is what its suppose to look like for the output:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Year Value Interest Payment Amt Retired
    1 100000.00 6000.00 13586.80 8000.00
    2 92000.00 5520.00 13526.05 8000.00
    3 84000.00 5040.00 13527.03 8000.00
    .
    .
    .
    10 13000.00 780.00 13780.01 13000.00
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    =====Enter values are 100bonds, $1000 each, 6% interestRate and 10 years

    value = bond * bondprice

    P = value*R/(1-(1/(1+R)^N)) R = rate of interest
    N = number of years left
    P = 13586.80

    interest = R * value =.06 * 100000 = 6000
    Number Retired = nearest integer of (P-interest)/bondprice
    = nearest integer (7586.80/1000) = 8



    I need help on the for loop calculations because after i run the for loop in main the number wouldnt come out right. I needs some help on how to fix this could anyone help
    me?






    #include <stdio.h>

    N = 0;

    //function call to input
    numYear = input(&bondPrice, &initBond, &intRate);
    printf("YEAR VALUE INTEREST PAYMENT AMT RETIRED\n");
    for(N = 0; numYear - N >= 0; N++)
    {
    annualPay = calculation(bondPrice, initBond, intRate, numYear, &value, &interest, N, &amtRetired);
    printf("%d %8.2f %8.2f %8.2f %8.2f\n", N, value, interest, annualPay, amtRetired * bondPrice);
    }

    system("PAUSE");
    return 0;

    printf("\nPlease enter the interest rate: ");
    scanf("%f", interestRate);
    printf("\nPlease enter the number of years the debt is to be paid: ");
    scanf("%d", &years);
    //return years
    return years;
    }
    //input
    ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    float calculation(float price, int bond, float interestRate, int years, float* value,

    { // variable declaration
    int r;

    float payment;
    //calculate value of bond
    *value = (float)price * bond;
    *interest = (float)(interestRate/100) * *value;


    payment = (*value * (interestRate/100))/(1 -(1/pow(1 + (interestRate/100), years - N)));

    *amtRetired = subCalculation(price, payment, *interest);


    // return payment
    return payment;
    }
    //calculations
    ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    float subCalculation(float price, float payment, float interest)
    { // variable declaration

    float amtRetired;
    amtRetired = (payment - interest)/(price);

    amtRetired = floor(amtRetired +.5);


    return amtRetired;

    }
