\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "set present value to 0
\n" ); document.write( "set future value to 300000
\n" ); document.write( "set number of time periods to 30 * 12 = 360
\n" ); document.write( "set interest rate percent per time period to 6/12 = .5
\n" ); document.write( "set payment to be made at the end of each time period.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "click on pmt and the calculator will tell you that the payments at the end of each month need to be 298.65.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the future value is positive because it's money you receive.
\n" ); document.write( "the payments are negative because it's money you pay out.\r
