I need to get the formula to figure the years and months of return on an
investment
cost of investment (g16)= 100000
Yearly income (k31) = 33480
Return on Investment =(g16/k31) for years
what is the formula to convert it into months?

thanks, melis

Melissa --
First, a minor clarification. I think you're computing the "breakeven
point" -- the time delay until your original investment is paid for. The
"ROI" is an interest-rate calculation -- what interest rate are you
generating on your invested money. That said, here's one approach:

A B
1 Orig. Cost $100,000
2 Yrly Return $33,480
3
4 Breakeven =INT(B1/B2) & " years and " & INT(MOD(B1/B2,1)*12) & "
months"

The result reads "2 years and 11 months".

Same as any other conversion from years to months: multiply by 12.

By the way, you are not calculating Return on Investment. You are
calculating the payback period (the time it takes to get your money back).
