=RRI(6, 5000, 5500)
Use RRI when you only have a single initial amount, a final amount, and time. Use RATE for loans or investments with regular payments. | Error | Likely Cause | Fix | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | #NUM! | Negative or zero present/future value | Check that Pv and Fv are positive numbers. | | #VALUE! | Non-numeric arguments | Ensure all inputs are numbers, not text. | | Unexpected decimal | Wrong period units | Match Nper units to the desired rate (e.g., use months for monthly rate). | Summary The RRI function in Excel is the quickest way to apply the rentes rente formel . Instead of typing =(Fv/Pv)^(1/Nper)-1 , simply use: rentes rente formel excel
| Argument | Explanation | | :--- | :--- | | | Number of periods (years, months, quarters, etc.) | | Pv | Present Value (start value) | | Fv | Future Value (end value) | Note: RRI always returns the rate per period . If Nper is in years, the result is the annual compound interest rate. Practical Examples Example 1: Annual Compound Interest You invest 10,000 DKK in a fund. After 5 years , it is worth 15,000 DKK . What was the average annual compound growth rate? =RRI(6, 5000, 5500) Use RRI when you only
=RRI(4, 200000, 120000)
To convert to annual rate: =(1+0.0161)^12 - 1 → Example 3: Negative Growth You buy a car for 200,000 DKK . After 4 years , its value is 120,000 DKK . What is the average annual compound depreciation? | Negative or zero present/future value | Check
To solve for the (the compound interest rate), the formula is:
Rate = (End Value / Start Value)^(1/Periods) - 1 Excel’s RRI function calculates the equivalent interest rate needed for an investment to grow from a present value to a future value over a specified number of periods. Syntax =RRI(Nper, Pv, Fv)
