Financial Formula Error
I get a #NUM! error when using the formula: NPER(E17/12,M17,D17,0). E17=14.15% M17=-123.15 D7=16,643.43 When these values are used for calculating in a Amortization Table (a different spre...
Thanx for your reply. I just noticed that, in err, I typed D7 instead of D17. Oops...
Hans, I do understand your explanation. But, using the same data in an Excel amortization table, as well as a TVM calculator, both provides a result with no error. What explains this?

Please check again - there is no way this could work.
Could you attach a sample workbook that shows otherwise?
- Hans, sorry for the long delay replying. I’m new to this forum and have a lot to learn.
A Microsoft email reminded me of this.
I tried the app that I had used using the aforementioned numbers above, but now get a “NaN” result. Perhaps I made a mistake with the original numbers I tried, because the app did give me (what I thought) a valid result when I first attempted to get the calculation. Nevertheless, you are correct. I trust your advice and truly appreciate your prompt support and insight. Thanx, again…- Hans, when I responded to the Microsoft email to reply, it required a new username. That is why you will see two different usernames. Don’t understand why it wouldn’t default to my original username??
