    Help with compound growth rates

    Hi,

    I'm trying to calculate the starting value and monthly increase in income based on a known total for the year (£150k) and monthly percentage increase (5%). Can anybody help?

    Thanks,
    Simon

    Put Total in A2, % increase in B2 and use this formula in C2 to calculate initial value=
    =A2*(B2/100)/(POWER(1+B2/100,12)-1)
    Check attached.

    =PMT(B2,12,0,-A2)
