The PV() function returns the present value of an investment -- the value today of a sum of money in the future, given the rate of interest or inflation. For example if you need $1166.40 for your new computer and you want to buy it in two years while earning 8% interest, you need to start with PV(1166.4; 0.08; 2) or $1000.
De funksje PV () jout de aktuele wearde werom fan in ynvestearring -- de wearde hjoed fan in takomstich jildbedrach, sjoen it rintepersintaazje of de ynflaasje. Foarbyld: Der is & euro; 1166, 40 nedich foar in nije kompjûter, en jo wolle dizze oer 2 jier keapje kinne, wylst jo 8% rinte oer jo sparjild krije. Jo kapitaal moat dan PV( 1166; 4; 0, 08; 2) oftewol & euro; 1000, 00 wêze.
