Evaluate(Object[]) Method


GrapeCity.CalcEngine.Functions Namespace > CalcFvFunction Class > Evaluate Method : Evaluate(Object[]) Method

The args contains 3 - 5 items: rate, nper, pmt, [pv], [type].

Rate is the interest rate per period.

Nper is the total number of payment periods in an annuity.

Pmt is the payment made each period; it cannot change over the life of the annuity. Typically, pmt contains principal and interest but no other fees or taxes. If pmt is omitted, you must include the pv argument.

Pv is the present value, or the lump-sum amount that a series of future payments is worth right now. If pv is omitted, it is assumed to be 0 (zero), and you must include the pmt argument.

Type is the number 0 or 1 and indicates when payments are due. If type is omitted, it is assumed to be 0.

Returns the System.Double future value of an investment based on periodic, constant payments and a constant interest rate.
