Retirement Calculation Formula Help

Start 1,000.00 (This number changes)

Interest Rate 5.00 (This number changes)

Monthly Draw 16.30 ( Formula needed here to
adjust 12/60
to 0.00)


55 56 57 58 59 60


1 1,000.00 851.02 694.41 529.79 356.75 174.86
2 987.87 838.26 681.00 515.70 341.94 159.29
3 975.68 825.46 667.54 501.55 327.06 143.65
4 963.45 812.59 654.02 487.34 312.13 127.95
5 951.16 799.68 640.45 473.07 297.13 112.18
6 938.83 786.71 626.82 458.74 282.07 96.35
7 926.44 773.69 613.13 444.35 266.94 80.45
8 914.00 760.61 599.38 429.90 251.75 64.49
9 901.51 747.48 585.58 415.39 236.50 48.46
10 888.96 734.30 571.72 400.83 221.19 32.36
11 876.37 721.06 557.80 386.20 205.81 16.19
12 863.72 707.76 543.83 371.50 190.37 -0.04


This might be a circular reference as you adjust the monthly draw it
changes all the other numbers as well. I need the last (bottom rt.)
number to be 0.00 and the monthly draw number to automatically change.

Any Ideas ??? Thanks,

Barry

If it doesn't absolutely need to be automatic, use Tools / Goal Seek to get your answer

Set the last set to zero by adjusting the variable

The formula for Draw: =PMT(Rate/12,71,Start,0,0)

or, if you want to show exactly what you'll be paying (the formula above
actually returns ($16.299520674854800) but that might be tough to write out a
check for ) :

=ROUND(PMT(Rate/12,71,Start,0,0),2)

(will be a negative number)

In your amortization table:

55/1 is Cell B6

B6: =Start
B7: =B6*(1+Rate/12)+Draw

copy/drag down to B12

Then select B7:B17 and copy/drag across to Column G

C6: =B17*(1+Rate/12)+Draw

Select C6 and copy/drag across to G6
