I'd like to know which function to use for a simple savings account.
rate is 5%
nper is 25 years
pmt is fixed $2,000 per annum
I would like to have a column with current value for each year, 25
cells.
NPV doesn't look right. Any thoughts?

Actually, CDs are what I had in mind if anyone can help.
Thanks.

Use FV()
For instance:
A B
1 =FV(5%,A1,-2000,-2000,0)
Copy B1 down to B25.
