RATE
RATE
| RATE ( n , m , p {, f} ) | ||||||||
| Parameter | Type | Description | ||||||
| n | Number |
|
The number of periods | |||||
| m | Number |
|
The monthly payment paid at the end of the period (use a negative number). For future value: pass an empty parameter (see example) |
|||||
| p | Number |
|
The current value of the loan | |||||
| f | Number |
|
The future value (use a negative number) | |||||
The RATE function returns the interest rate corresponding to the values passed in parameters. Two formulas can be used:
- First formula, when you know the monthly payment paid at the end of the period
- Second formula, when you know the acquired value:
You borrowed 3,000 euros and your monthly payments are 1,000 euros over 5 months:
RATE(5,-1000,3000) //0.19You borrowed 2,800 euros and the total paid value is 6,000 euros over 5 months:
RATE(5,,2800,-6000) //0.16
