. Enter a formula in cell B8 that calculates the periodic interest rate (the interest rate per payment
period). Do not use a function in your formula. As always, make sure to use references rather than
typing numbers into your formula, otherwise marks will be deducted. For example, if you need the
loan amount in cell B4, enter a reference to B4 rather than typing 2000000 into your formula.
12. Enter a formula in cell B9 that calculates the number of payments in the loan. Do not use a function
in your formula.
13. Enter a formula in cell B13 that uses the PPMT function to calculate the principal repaid on the first
loan payment. Your formula must return a positive value. If you need to use the values calculated in
steps 11 or 12, make sure to reference them rather than recalculating these values in your formula,
otherwise marks will be deducted. This also applies to the remaining questions in this worksheet.
14. Enter a formula in cell B14 that uses the IPMT function to calculate the interest paid on the first loan
payment. Your formula must return a positive value.
15. Enter a formula in cell B15 that uses the SUM function to calculate the total of the first loan
payment.
16. Enter a formula in cell F5 that uses the CUMPRINC function to calculate the cumulative principal
repaid after the first year. You will need to reference cell E5 in your formula for the end payment
number. Your formula must return a positive value. Copy cell F5 to cells F6 through F14.
17. Enter a formula in cell B18 that uses the NPER function to calculate the number of periods in the
loan. You can use the total first loan payment calculated in cell B15 for the payment amount since all
the loan payments are equal. Make sure to use a negative value for the loan amount in your
formula. Your result should match the value you calculated in cell B9.
18. Enter a formula in cell B19 that uses the RATE function to calculate the annual interest rate of the
loan. Make sure to use a negative value for the loan amount in your formula. Don't forget to multiply
the result returned by the RATE function by the number of payments in a year to obtain the annual
interest rate. Your result should match the value in cell B5.
19. Enter a formula in cell B20 that uses the FV function to calculate the future value of the loan
amount. Use a negative value for the payment amount, and a positive value for the loan amount.
Since all the payments are equal, you can use the payment amount in cell B15.
