+This SQL file displays payment plans for each of the suppliers. It consists of three 
+CTEs. 
+supplier_invoice finds the latest due date per supplier and calculates the sum of all 
+invoices for each of them. 
+monthly_payment_amount calculates number of monthly payments remaining based off the 
+latest due date. It also calculates monthly payment amount and the last month amount 
+(monthly payment plus the remainder).
+balance generates a sequence (extra rows) for each of the months we have until due 
+date to cover our expenses. It also displays balance left for each month. 
+
+The query was formatted using https://poorsql.com/ formatter.
