Overview

Three programs to analyze cash flows given an interest rate:

NPV - Net Present Value
NFV - Net Future Value
NUS - Net Utility Stream (what would the payments be per period if they were all equal?)

All three programs take the same two arguments:

FLOWS, Interest Rate per Period

FLOWS = {Initial Cash Flow, Cash Flow Pd 1, Cash Flow Pd 2, .... , Cash Flow Pd N}

Enter outflows (i.e. payments) as negative.

Listing

In the programs: ΣList = the sum of the list command in the Math Menu:
↰ MTH List ΣList.

NPV:
« → FLOWS R
« FLOWS 1. 1. R % + 'X' 'X' 0. FLOWS
SIZE 1. - 1. SEQ ^ ÷ ΣList →NUM » »

NFV:
« → FLOWS R
« FLOWS 1 1 R % + 'X' 'X' 0. FLOWS
SIZE 1. - 1. SEQ ^ REVLIST × ΣList →NUM » »

NUS:
« → FLOWS I
« 1. 'PYR' STO FLOWS SIZE 1. - 'N' I 'I%/YR' STO STO FLOWS 
I NPV 'PV' STO 0. 'FV' STO 'PMT' TVMROOT NEG » »
