Hello,

I recently upgraded from OpenOffice and everything seems to be working
great. I do have a question about the built-in NPV function in Calc
however. Calculating the NPV of a given cash flow using the built-in
function and doing a manual calculation provide drastically different
results. I am not sure what the built-in function uses, but I am using
the fairly standard formula of:

(Value of Cash flow at period t) / (1 + r) ^ t

Is this expected behavior? I am using a Debian build of version 3.3.1.


What specifically are you entering in the NPV formula?

These might help:
