I know this is an If statement, however how do you indicate the date?
If O3 contains date, then Yes in B3.

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
=IF(DATE(TEXT(O3;"yyyy");TEXT(O3;"mm");TEXT(O3;"dd"));Yes;"")

- depends on date format
