✦ Tips
- Npery is truncated to an integer.
- NOMINAL (effect_rate,npery) is related to EFFECT(nominal_rate,npery) through effective_rate=(1+(nominal_rate/npery))*npery -1.
- The relationship between NOMINAL and EFFECT is shown in the following equation:
⚠ Common Errors
#VALUE!
If either argument is nonnumeric, NOMINAL returns the #VALUE! error value.
Fix: برای effect_rate و npery مقادیر عددی وارد کنید.
#NUM!
If effect_rate ≤ 0 or if npery < 1, NOMINAL returns the #NUM! error value.
Fix: Check the two arguments
