combo function of adding %
This is a Future Value problem:
In any cell, enter this:
=FV(0.025,8,0,-1)
The '-' is to force the result to be positive. We assume $1 is going 'out'
(negative cash flow) and in the future we are getting money 'in' (positive
cash flow).
Google around for future value, present value, and cash flows.
