Note
When you enter a debt in your debt reduction plan, Money assumes
that interest starts accruing immediately, so the minimum payment

you have not entered an interest payment because you don't owe any
interest during the first month of using the debt reduction plan,
the plan will automatically adjust your total balance on that
debt.
