40. Absolute Reference Open the worksheet Absolute Hold down the Ctrl +` keys to display the formulas When calculating cell values using absolute references, it is best to use the pointing method. When calculating cell values using absolute references, it is best to use the pointing method. We are going to calculate the future value of cell C5. C5 is the value of cell B5 when a cost increase of 10% is added to the cost of goods sold 10% is the value of cell D24 and is an Absolute Reference

(G4 * 12) In Pv, click in cell H4 (the value calculated as the price less trade and down payment) Type a – sign before F 4 Click OK

46. Future Value (FV) Function Future value of an investment based on constant periodic payments Constant interest rate There are still 3 Arguments Amount at retirement = Future Value, V (rate or return), -Periodic Payment Expressed in CELL NOTATION

47. FV Open the Worksheet FV Click cell E8. Type =( and click in B2 Express B2 as an Absolute Reference and subtract it from B8, then type ) This will calculate the number of years you will contribute to your retirement

48. FV Click in cell F8 Choose the Formula tab Locate Financial in the Function Library Choose FV from the list

49. FV In Rate, click cell D8 In Nper, click cell E8 In PMT, click in cell C8 Type a – sign before C8 Click OK Type your age in B6 and $3,000 in cell C6 the value in F6 is $90,972.85

50. Goal Seek Goal seek will allows you to set the end result in order to determine the input Using the care financing example, I want to know how much I need to receive for my trade- in (D5) to finance $18,000 (F5) (assuming that my down payment Is the same).
