Question 1180736: P((1 + (r/n)) ^ (nt)) + PMT * [(((1 + (r/n)) ^ (nt)) -1 ) / (r/n)]=FV
P=1000
n=12
t=10
PMT=100
FV=40000
find r
Had go thru many research, found out that is impossible to use algorithm to solve to find r. The only method was using trial and error.

Yes, this solver does trial and errors, but it is highly professionally organized search with using
all contemporary advanced computational technologies for finding the roots of non-linear functions.


So, you can repeat my experience . . .


At the end,  you may inform me about your progress and about your results.

It would be interesting for me to hear from you.


Happy calculations  (!)
