formulas

compou­nding interest
FVn=PV­o(1­+r)^n (finding fv)
 
PVo=FVo/ (1+r)^n (finding pv)
 
n=ln(f­v/p­v)/­ln(1+r) (finding time)
 
R= (FVo * PVo) ^ (1/n) -1 (finding rate)
FVn=
PMT [((1 + r)n - 1) / r]
PVt =
PMT(t+1) [(1 - 1/(1 + r)n) / r]
PVt =
PMT(t+1) / r
Periodic Interest Rate
r = APR / m
EAR =
(1 + APR/m)m - 1
. r ≈
r* + h
r =
r* + inf + dp + mp
Bond Price (PB) =
Coupon PMT [(1 - 1/(1 + r)n) / r] + Par / (1 + r)n
Current Yield =
Annual Coupon PMT / PB
YTM =
(Par/P­B)(1/n) – 1
YTM ≈
(Coupon + (Par –PB)/n) / [.4 Par + .6 PB]
Profit =
ending value + distri­but­ion­s-o­riginal cost
HPR =
(profit or loss)/­ori­ginal cost
Simple annual return =
HPR/n
EAR =
(1 + HPR)(1/n) - 1
Variance (X) =
[∑(Xi – Average)2] / (n – 1) = σ2 (Divisor of (n – 1) for sample and (n) for popula­tion)
Standard Deviation =
(σ2)(1/2) = σ
Re =
E (ri) = rf + βi [E(rm) - rf]
