Description

FutureValue calculates the future value of an investment (FV) in the cash flow formula (see CashFlowFunctions) The function result is the future value of an investment of APresentValue (PV), where APayment (PMT) is invested for NPeriods (n) at the rate of ARate (q) per period.

The APaymentTime parameter determines whether the investment (payment) is an ordinary annuity or an annuity due: ptEndOfPeriod must be used if payments are at the end of each period. If the payments are at the beginning of the periode, ptStartOfPeriod must be used.
