Future Value Inputs for FV
$1,610.51 Rate 10%
NPER 5
PMT 0
PV ($1,000)
Type 0
$1,610.51

Here is the answer: FV = PV x (1+r)n FV= ? r = 10% n = 10% FV= future value PV= Present Value FV = $1,000 x (1+10%)5 In column H I solve the problem using the present value formula. In column I the Future value calculation is done with the Excel formula. The Periodic payments are zero because I only make one deposit at time zero. If you were savings $1,000 each year the PMT would be -$1,000. The entry for "type" indicates when payments are made or are due. When 0 is entered it means you are making a deposit or investment at the end of the period not the beginning of the period.
