Syntax

CUMIPMT(rate,nper,pv,start_period,end_period,type)

Rate    is the interest rate.

Nper    is the total number of payment periods.

Pv    is the present value.

Start_period    is the first period in the calculation. Payment periods are numbered beginning with 1.

End_period    is the last period in the calculation.

Type    is the timing of the payment.

Type Timing
0 (zero) Payment at the end of the period
1 Payment at the beginning of the period
Remarks
  • Make sure that you are consistent about the units you use for specifying rate and nper. If you make monthly payments on a four-year loan at an annual interest rate of 10 percent, use 10%/12 for rate and 4*12 for nper. If you make annual payments on the same loan, use 10% for rate and 4 for nper.
  • Nper, start_period, end_period, and type are truncated to integers.
  • If rate ≤ 0, nper ≤ 0, or pv ≤ 0, CUMIPMT returns the #NUM! error value.
  • If start_period < 1, end_period < 1, or start_period > end_period, CUMIPMT returns the #NUM! error value.
  • If type is any number other than 0 or 1, CUMIPMT returns the #NUM! error value.
