The FV() function.
The FV function.
The FV function calculates the future value of an investment.
PV is used for present values and FV is used for future values.
The FV function.
The PV function returns the present value of an investment, which is the total amount that a series of future payments is worth presently.
FV( interest_rate, number_payments, payment, PV, Type )
You can use the PV function or the NPV function. Present Value is the result of discounting future amounts to the present. Net Present Value is the present value of the cash inflows minus the present value of the cash outflows.
It really depends on what you are trying to calculate. The most common math application is TVM - Time Value of Money which will allow you to calculate mortgage rates, prepayments, and investment value. Any business calculator will have that function
No, the future value of an investment does not increase as the number of years of compounding at a positive rate of interest declines. The future value is directly proportional to the number of compounding periods, so as the number of years of compounding decreases, the future value of the investment will also decrease.
Future Value
Future Value Calculator Use this calculator to determine the future value of an investment which can include an initial deposit and a stream of periodic deposits.
The PV function is a financial function. It is used to return the present value of an investment based on an interest rate and a constant payment schedule. The syntax is a follows: PV( rate, number_payments, payment, [FV], [Type] ) Rate is the interest rate for the investment. Number_payments is the number of payments for the annuity. Payment is the amount of the payment made each period. If it is omitted, you have to enter a FV value. FV is optional. It is the future value of the payments. If it is omitted, it is assumed to be 0. Type is optional. It indicates when the payments are due. Type can be one of the following values: 0 for when payments are due at the end of the period, which is the default. 1 for when payments are due at the start of the period. If the Type parameter is left out, the PV function sets the Type value to 0.
