Capital Recovery Factor

A capital recovery factor is the ratio of a constant annuity to the present value of receiving that annuity for a given length of time.

The capital recovery factor depends on the interest rate and the compounding periods.

Formula

QuantityVariable["CRF", "Unitless"] == (QuantityVariable["i", "Unitless"]*(1 + QuantityVariable["i", "Unitless"])^QuantityVariable["n", "Unitless"])/(-1 + (1 + QuantityVariable["i", "Unitless"])^QuantityVariable["n", "Unitless"])

Forms

Examples

Get the resource:
