PMT(interest rate, number of periods per annuity, pv [,fv] [,type])
Returns the periodic payment of an annuity, based on regular payments and a fixed periodic interest rate. Pv is the amount the annuity is currently worth and fv is the amount the annuity will be worth (default is 0). Type indicates when the payments are due: 0 refers to payments due at the end of
the period and 1 at the beginning.
See also: FV, IPMT, NPER, PPMT, PV, RATE
PPMT(interest rate, period, number of periods, pv [,fv] [,type])
Returns the principle paid on an annuity for a given period. Pv is the amount the annuity is currently worth and fv is the amount the annuity will be worth (default is 0). Type indicates when the payments are due: 0 refers to payments due at the end of the period and 1 at the beginning.
See also: FV, IPMT, NPER, PMT, PV, RATE
PRODUCT(number list)
Multiplies a list of numbers and returns the result.
See also: FACT, SUM
PROPER(text)
Returns the text string in proper-case format, i.e., the first alphabetic character in a word and alphabetic characters following a number, punctuation mark or space are capitalized.
See also: LOWER, UPPER
PV(interest rate, number of periods in the investment, pmt [,fv] [,type])
Returns the present value of an annuity, considering a series of constant payments made over a regular payment period. Pmt is the fixed payment made each period and fv is the amount the annuity will be worth (default is 0). Type indicates when the payments are due: 0 refers to payments due at the end of the period and 1 at the beginning.
See also: FV, IPMT, NPER, PMT, PPMT, RATE
RAND()
Returns a number selected randomly from a uniform distribution greater than
or equal to 0 and less than 1.
RATE(number of periods, pmt, pv [,fv] [,type] [,guess])
Returns the interest rate per period of an annuity, given a series of constant cash payments made over a regular payment period. Pmt is the fixed payment made each period, fv is the amount the annuity will be worth (default is 0) and guess is the estimate of the interest rate (default is 10%). Type indicates when the payments are due: 0 refers to payments due at the end of the period and 1 at the beginning.
