Default CALCULATE MAXIMUM AMOUNT TO BORROW

You also need to know the term (length of the loan), but you want present
value, as in:

=PV(IntRate/12,Years*12,-Payment)

Regards,
Fred.

What calculation do I use for Excel 2003 to calculate the maximum I can
borrow when I know the rate and the maximum amount I can afford?
