INTRO: This application in financial calculations, of many types, does not avoid looking up and using established or published tables. See DISCLAIMER and WARNING. EXAMPLE: If you want to know the annual return on a present worth of $200,000 and if you invest anything over $20,000, for ten years at an assumed annual interest of 8%, what is the remaining sum? First calculate AP for the Annual return on the Present Worth ($200,000) for an assumed 8% annual interest over 10 years. That gives you $24,000 annual return, but nothing left after 10 years (that's the annuity calculation). You get .149 or a $29,800 annual return. Second calculate the FA for Future Worth on the Annual Savings of $9,800 (the amount over $20,000). I got 14.48 or $141,904 is left in savings. The answer requires looking up two factors on the Interest Table Page ( plus a pocket calculator ). USE: The program outputs all the factor types ( which you can read from the table ). Enter the interest in decimal notation or whole numbers percent. The number of years involved are given in the table. DISCLAIMER-WARNING: The application on the Web gives a table of interest calculations. The author, web site , et.al. is not responsible for any use of the table. The values are a good match to published tables but some factors do not match at all places. The calculations give a number of results not in published tables - many were at the extreams of the table (in the least significant digits of the largest numbers). EXAMPLE : Another example in financial calculations, of many types, not to avoid looking up tables, of course. If you want to know the annual return on a present worth of $100,000 and if you invest anything over $10,000, for ten years at an assumed annual interest of 8%, what is the remaining sum? First calculate AP for the Annual return on the Present Worth ($100,000) for an assumed 8% annual interest over 10 years. That gives you $14,000 annual return, but nothing left after 10 years (that's the annuity calculation). You get .14 or a $14,000 annual return. Second calculate the FA for Future Worth on the Annual Savings of $4,000 (the amount over $10,000). I got 14.48 or $57,920 is left in savings. Or, you saved $4,000 for 10 years ($40,000) and received $17,920 in interest.
