Summary

Exact prompt

# Mortgage amortization with extra monthly payments and lump sums `input.json` describes a fixed-rate loan plus planned prepayments (synthetic). Write `solve.py` (Python 3 standard library only) so that `python solve.py input.json answer.json` produces the payment, the baseline payoff, and the full schedule with prepayments. We re-run it on fresh inputs, so do not hard-code anything. ## Input `principal`, `annual_rate` (percent, e.g. 6.125), `years`, `extra_monthly`, `extra_start_month` (first month the extra is paid; months count from 1), `lump_sums` (list of `{"month", "amount"}`; several can fall in the same month and then add up). ## Rules 1. Money is exact cents with `decimal.Decimal` and ROUND_HALF_UP to 0.01 (convert input numbers with `Decimal(str(x))`). 2. Scheduled payment: with float r = annual_rate / 1200 and n = years * 12, x = principal * r / (1 - (1 + r) ** -n) computed in floats; payment = `Decimal(str(x))` rounded to cents. 3. Each month m: interest = round(balance * annual_rate / 1200) (in Decimal). Prepayment = extra_monthly if m >= extra_start_month (else 0) plus the lump sums for month m. If payment + prepayment >= balance + interest, this is the last month: the amount paid is balance + interest and the balance becomes 0. Otherwise the amount paid is payment + prepayment and the balance drops by (amount paid - interest). 4. The baseline is the same loan with no extra and no lump sums. 5. `interest_saved` = baseline total interest - total interest with prepayments; `months_saved` = baseline months - months with prepayments. ## Output `answer.json`: ``` {"payment": ..., "baseline": {"months": ..., "total_interest": ..., "last_payment": ...}, "with_extra": {"months": ..., "total_interest": ..., "schedule": [[month, amount_paid, interest, principal_paid, balance_after], ...]}, "interest_saved": ..., "months_saved": ...} ``` One schedule row per month, money as numbers with 2 decimals. ## Chart (required visual) Also write `chart.svg` in the working directory: a static, self-contained SVG (root element `<svg>`, no scripts, no external images, fonts, stylesheets or links) that can be rendered headless. It must contain `<polyline id="balance">` drawing the with-extra remaining balance by month. ## Scoring The `chart_svg_static` check (one more check, counted in partial credit) passes only if `chart.svg` exists after the fixture run, parses, has root `<svg>`, contains the ids above with the stated tags, and has no `<script>`, `<img>`/`<image>`, `<link>`, `<iframe>`/`<object>`/`<embed>`, `on*` handlers, or `href`/`src` pointing anywhere except `#...` or `data:`. Its drawing is not graded. Hidden checks (partial credit = fraction passed; all must pass), money within 0.011, counts exact: `payment`, `baseline`, `schedule_rows` (every row), `savings` on the given input; `fresh_run_1`, `fresh_run_2` (the whole answer on fresh inputs; one has two lump sums in the same month). Each run has a 60-second limit.

Every schedule row is compared: payment rounding, interest rounding each month, extra start month, same-month lump sums that add up, and the short final payment. Inspired by https://x.com/girlinAI/status/2079167648093622450 Headless, offline run on a reproducible fixture. Cost shown is a list-price estimate (measured tokens x pricing.json list price).

These are synthetic test cases for comparing AI models, not financial advice.

Success criteria: 1. payment 2. baseline 3. schedule_rows 4. savings 5. fresh_run_1 6. fresh_run_2 7. chart_svg_static

Setup notes: Use Case Scout batch 9 case j08-amortization-extra-payments (offline fixture). Prepared with batch9/prepare.sh; hidden key/tests kept outside the agent's work dir. Prompt = TASK.md verbatim. Scored with the scout's scorer: `python score.py WORKDIR KEYDIR`. Tools: list_files/read_file/write_file/run_shell (venice-mini-agent v1.3), web disabled. Single run, no retries. Visual output (chart.svg) rendered offline to PNG with google-chrome headless, network blocked, 1280x800 at ~3 s after load. Harness: venice-mini-agent v1.3.1 (/workspace/usecase-runner/venice_agent2.py) via the Venice OpenAI-compatible API: same tool loop, system prompt and limits as the cases 02-25 Venice runs (max 25 turns, max_tokens 16000/call, temperature 0.2, Venice system prompt and web search off, per-run cost cap $0.0087, thinking on (model default)). Same task text, work-dir layout and scorer as the Claude runs of this case. Cost = measured per-call tokens x venice_prices.json list price; paid from the Venice DIEM daily allowance. Harness: venice-mini-agent v1.3.1 via Venice OpenAI-compatible API (16000 max tokens/call, $0.0087 run cap). Score: 7/7. Cost is an ESTIMATE: measured per-call tokens x pricing.json list price (paid from Venice DIEM allowance; Venice billing not itemized). input_tokens include cached reads. Single run.

Estimated cost List-price estimate; not actually billed.

Reproduce this run

  1. Use the use case prompt on the use case page.
  2. Same setup: Mistral Small 3.2 24B Instruct (Venice) (venice/mistral-small-3-2-24b-instruct, thinking on) via venice-mini-agent v1.3.1, cloud.
  3. It counts as a success only if it meets every success criterion: 1. payment 2. baseline 3. schedule_rows 4. savings 5. fresh_run_1 6. fresh_run_2 7. chart_svg_static
  4. Log model, tokens, wall time, human step-ins and the evidence log, then submit it as a reproduction. A different model? Submit a head-to-head rerun.
