formula you are looking for is shown below:


ANNUITY FOR A PRESENT AMOUNT WITH END OF TIME PERIOD PAYMENTS 

a = (p*r)/(1-(1/(1+r)^n)) 

a is the annuity.
p is the present amount.
r is the interest rate per time period.
n is the number of time periods. 


when using this formula:


replace p with 16500
replace r with 3.4% / 12 / 100% = .00283334
replace n with 5 * 12= 60


formula should look like this:


a = (16500*.00283334)/(1-(1/(1+.00283334)^60)) = 299.43


calculator uses interest rate percent.
formula uses interest rate = %/100.


in the calculator, if present value is shown as positive, then amt will be shown as negative, and vice versa.


if you are trying to duplicate the formula results, make sure you enter parentheses exactly as shown.
