0is4eva | PV * (1+r/m)^N = FV (1+r/m)^N = FV/PV (1+r/m) = (FV/PV)^(1/N) r = m * ( (FV/PV)^(1/N) - 1 ) |
jlevee | Just look at the TVM buttons on your calculator. If you have all but one you can do it... |
sunxx320 | I think 0is4eva's formula is not right. FV=PV*(1+r/m)^(N*m), so r=m*((FV/PV)^(1/Nm)-1). |
