Calculate compound interest for an initial principal value with contributions each period.
The principal is assumed to compound each period. The total number of periods equals the number of years times the number of periods per year. For monthly compounding interest the number of periods per year equals 12. For annual compounding interest the number of periods per year equals 1. The total number of contributions equals the number of periods. The first contribution is assumed to be made with the initial principal, with an additional payment at the beginning of each period. The final contribution is made at the beginning of the final period.
The calculation can be used to calculate either the final principal, the initial principal, the compound interest rate, the number of years, or the contribution.
