NPV function

Net present value of periodic cash flows. NPV works in Sheets with the usual arguments and results, on cells and on live data from the tools you connect.

Syntax

=NPV(rate, value1, [value2, ...])
ArgumentUse
raterequired
value1required, repeatable
value2optional, repeatable
required

On live data

In Sheets, NPV sits next to live data from a connected tool: =data.orders.sum(total) totals a table, =list.orders(customer) spills a column's distinct values, and a linked table column such as table.orders[Total] is a range any function accepts.
