I'm embarrased to say I can't seem to figure this out.

Anyways; here's the situation. I want to calculate a simple interest annual rate of return of 2% over a 3 year period.

The initial loan amount is $3,200, and payments will be monthly. I can't seem to remember exactly how to adjust the P/Y, I/Y, & N to get the right numbers.

Again, I don't want to RoR to be compounded or amortized. Just a level payment 2% RoR on the initial outlay. Before you jump on me, this is a below market rate loan for family.

Thanks folks.

It shouldn't matter, but I'm using a BA II Plus.

I also know that I can simply take 2% X $3,200 and do some basic arithmetic. But I'd like to refresh myself on how to use TVM if anyone can help.

Use 2/12 for I/Y

Use 3*12 for N


There are other ways to do it, but that's the simplest.
