What would be the the mathematical equivalent of this excel formula? =PMT()












6














I need to create a JavaScript form that does the same calculation as this =PMT() function.



mortgage = 220000
rate= 4.75%
term = 30


The example formula I have is =PMT(4.75%/12,30*12,220000*-1)



What would be the equation for this function? I tried to look up this function but it doesn't explain it very well.

          The equation you want is: P = (Pv*R) / [1 - (1 + R)^(-n)]



          where





          • P = Monthly Payment


          • Pv = Present Value (starting value of the loan)


          • APR = Annual Percentage Rate


          • R = Periodic Interest Rate = APR/number of interest periods per year


          • n = Total number of interest periods (interest periods per year * number of years)


          Using the variables above, the Excel =PMT() function is =PMT(R,n,Pv)



          So, for your example where:




          • rate (APR) = 4.75% (making R=4.75%/12 or 0.0475/12)

          • mortgage (Pv) = 220000

          • term (# of years) = 30 (n=30*12 with monthly payments)


          The equation becomes:




          P = ((220000 * (0.0475/12)) / (1 - ((1 + (0.0475/12))^(-1 * 30 * 12))))


          Or, with the original equation shown directly below it for comparison:




          P = ((220000 * (0.0475/12)) / (1 - ((1 + (0.0475/12))^(-1 * 30 * 12))))
          P = ( Pv * R ) / (1 - ( 1 + R )^( -n )
