{  These are pascal implementations some of the finance functions
   available for ObjectVision and Quattro Pro. They are intended to
   work exactly as described in the Quattro Pro 3.0 @Functions manual.

   The following are the Lotus 1-2-3 compatibility functions.

           CTERM ( Rate, FV,      PV)
           DDB   ( cost, salvage, life, period)
           FV    ( Pmt,  Rate,    Nper)
           PMT   ( PV,   RATE,    Nper)
           PV    ( Pmt,  Rate,    Nper)
           RATE  ( FV,   PV,      Nper)
           SLN   ( cost, salvage, life)
           SYD   ( cost, salvage, life, period)
           TERM  ( pmt,  rate,    fv)

   Also implemented are the extended versions of the routines that
   balance the following "cash-flow" equation:

 pval*(1+rate)^nper + paymt*(1+rate*ptype)*((1+rate)^nper-1)/rate + fval = 0

           IRATE (            nper, pmt, pv, fv, ptype)
           NPER  ( rate,            pmt, pv, fv, ptype)
           PAYMT ( rate,      nper,      pv, fv, ptype)
           PPAYMT( rate, per, nper,      pv, fv, ptype)
           IPAYMT( rate, per, nper,      pv, fv, ptype)
           PVAL  ( rate,      nper, pmt,     fv, ptype)
           FVAL  ( rate,      nper, pmt, pv,     ptype)

   In QPro and OV, the ptype code is either 0 or 1 to indicate that the
   is made at the end or beginning of the month respectively.  My preferred
   explanation is that "ptype" is the fraction of the interest rate that is
   applied to a payment in the period that it is paid.  This has the same
   effect when ptype is 0 or 1, but complicates the explanation for what is
   right when ptype=1. THE EXAMPLES IN THE QPRO AND OV MANUALS DO NOT AGREE
   FOR THE "PPAYMT" FUNCTION.  Someone needs to explain these discrepancies.
   UFinance follows the QPro3 style, but the formula is different than what
   QPro3 function reference says is used for IPaymt.

   The "block" financial functions from QPro3 are also implemented:

                   IRR ( guess, block)
                   NPV ( rate, block, ptype)

   These make use of the "UBlock.BlockType" object designed especially
   for these functions.  The BlockType object provides access to a list
   of indexed floating point numbers. See the test program FINTEST.PAS
   for an example of BlockType usage.

   Caveats:  under no circumstances will I be held responsible if someone
   misuses this code.  The code is provided for the convenience of other
   programmers.  It is the someone else's responsibility to ensure that
   these functions satisfy financial needs.

   While this is a relatively complete set of functions, it is not possible
   to calculate all desirved components in the compound interest equation
   directly.  In particular, there is no way provided to compute directly
   the interest rate on an annuity or loan that goes from "pv" to "fv" in
   "nper" intervals, paying "pmt" each period.  The "RATE" function
   provided only determines the rate at which a compounded amount grows.
   The "IRATE" function computes a value by successive approximation and
   is inherently unstable. (The "IRR" function is subject to similar
   instability.)

   One way in which programmers go wrong is misunderstanding the
   distinction between binary floating point representations of numbers and
   decimal floating point representation.  Turbo Pascal, as well as most
   other high speed number processing systems, uses the binary form.  While
   such binary operations give results that are close to their decimal
   counterparts, some differences may arise.  Especially, when you expect
   results to round one way versus the other.
