Investment/Loan Graph
Working on a new Investment/Loan Graph
Does it make sense? Does it do the calcs correctly? Any suggestions?

Re: Investment/Loan Graph
Hi MIF;
Very nice looking interface. So far it is doing everything correct.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

Re: Investment/Loan Graph
hi MathsIsFun,
I'm confused. Raw? PV NPV etc ?
I looked at your interest and compound interest pages and so I think PV means 'present value'.
But you used FV for 'future value', so what is NPV ?
And why is the 2000 negative ? Does that mean it is a loan rather than an investment ?
Maybe a key to the terminology is needed. (Well, it is for dummies like me 
)
