FinFutureVal (Function) In french: FinValFuture Returns the future value of an investment. The payments are regular and fixed. The interest rate is fixed.
ResValFuture = FinFutureVal(-100000, -3000, 24, 8)
Syntax
<Result> = FinFutureVal([<Initial capital> [, <Periodic Deposit> [, <Number of periods> [, <Rate> [, <Start>]]]]])
<Result>: Real or currency Future value of the investment. <Initial capital>: Optional real or currency Initial capital (0 by default). <Periodic Deposit>: Optional real or currency Periodic deposit (0 by default). This value is fixed for the entire duration of the operation. In most cases, this amount includes the capital and the interests. <Number of periods>: Optional integer Total number of periods for the operation (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. This rate cannot be null. <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, for monthly payments of a 5-year loan with a yearly interest rate set to 8%, use: - <Rate> = 8% / 12,
- <Number of Periods> = 5*12
For the same loan with yearly payments, use: - <Rate> = 8%,
- <Number of Periods> = 5
For all the parameters, the payments are represented by a negative number while the collections are represented by a positive number. Caution: FinFutureVal 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.
