FinCurrentVal (Function) In french: FinValActuelle Returns the current value of investment. Reminder Present value corresponds to the sum represented today by a set of future repayments. For example, when you get a loan, the amount of the loan represents the current value for the lender.
ResValActuelle = FinCurrentVal(-5000, 50000, 10, 8)
Syntax
<Result> = FinCurrentVal([<Payment Value> [, <Future Value> [, <Number of periods> [, <Rate> [, <Start>]]]]])
<Result>: Real or currency Current value of investment. <Payment Value>: Optional real or currency Payment value for each period (0 by default). This payment is identical over the entire duration. This value must be negative. <Future Value>: Optional real or currency Future value (capitalized value). This is the amount after the last payment (0 by default). <Number of periods>: Optional integer Total number of periods for the investment (1 by default). <Rate>: Optional real Interest rate of investment expressed in percentage (1 by default). For example, for a 5% rate, this parameter will be set to 5. <Start>: Optional boolean - True if the payments must be made at the beginning of period (default value),
- False if the payments must be made at the end of period.
Remarks The calculations can be performed according to months or years. <Rate> and <Period> must correspond to the same unit. Therefore, to get the current value of a 4-year loan, paid off monthly, with a yearly interest rate set to 10%, the units can be expressed in months: - <Period> = 4*12,
- <Rate> = 10% / 12
Caution: FinCurrentVal returns no error code. To determine if this function has generated errors, use FinError. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo with the errMessage constant.
