Default Calculating Compounded Growth Rates

Is it possible to calculate a compounded growth rate using a begining
value, ending value, and number of intervals?
For example,
2005 Population = 24635
2010 Population = 30159
Inverals = 5
The annual rate (5 intervals) = 4.11%


=(30159 / 24635) ^ (1 / 5) - 1

Is there a function that can calucate the 4.11 % ?


=rate(5, 0, -24635, 30159)

(4.13%, by the way.)
