Discount Factor and Term Certain

=DF(name, when, [discount-rate=default discount-rate])

returns a single figure representing the discount factor to be applied to a loss in the future. Note: this is equivalent to a multiplier for a given one-off loss in the future discounted solely for accelerated receipt.

example:

=DF("Brian", 90) returns the discount factor for a loss incurred when Brian is aged 90.

=DF("Brian", 90, -0.75%) returns the discount factor for a loss incurred when Brian is aged 90 with a discount rate of -0.75%

examples:

=TC("Brian", 60, 90) returns the term certain from Brian's age 60 to Brain's age 90.

=TC("Brian", 60, 90, -0.75%) returns the term certain from Brian's age 60 to Brain's age 90 at a discount rate of -0.75%.

Interest

=AGGINT(name, from, [to], [frequency="Y"])
