How would I write the formula to evaluate two fields to determine which fields value to use.
 
For example:
 
If Amount = 0 then (AnnualAmount x (term/12) else (Amount x (term/12))
My premium support inside Salesforce staff can not help.
 
We have always calculated a principle and interest payment using, Microsoft Excel, a financial calculator or loan software.
 
They all have a "PMT" function and salesforce does not.
 
This is absolutely critical for us and has stopped us in our tracks. Using "simple" interest will NOT cut it for us, as we are a commercial loan company.
 
Has anyone successfully written a principle & interest formula in salesforceeaze?
 
Please (begging) help...

I want to build a payment calculation that would show the P&I (principal and interest) payment for a loan.  My variables would be loan amount, term, and interest rate.  When I put in the complete mathematical formula I get an error.  I seem to have narrowed the problem down to the negative exponent that is needed in the payment calculation.  Any suggestions for a work around, or other solution?
