Financial formula for Discounting Cashflows
Hi,
I have a column of cashflows for 20 years in cells C1:C21 I want the sum of the discounted cash flows, at a discount rate of 8%. So... the cashflow in cell C1 is C1/1.08 and C2 is C2/1.08*1.08 ,...etc. And I need the sum of these... so C1/1.08 + C2/1.08*1.08 + ...+C21/1.08^20 Is there a "Discount formula" that can do this calculation neatly in a single cell? Thanks a lot for your help |

Try =NPV(0.08,C1:C21). But, the range C1:C21 contains 21 cells, not 20. - Mike www.mikemiddleton.com ++++++++++++++++++++++++ "Jeff" wrote in message ...
