Description

The PAYMENT() function is synonymous with the PMT() function. It calculates the payment on a loan where <expN1> is the principal amount of the loan, <expN2> is the periodic interest rate and <expN3> is the number of payment periods of the loan. Interest rates must be converted to fractions of one (e.g. 25% = .25).
