To calculate a percentage rate in Google Sheets, you can use the formula = (part/whole) * 100, where “part” is the value you want to find the percentage of and “whole” is the total value. This formula will return the percentage rate as a decimal, which you can then format as a percentage by selecting the cell and clicking on the “%” button in the toolbar. Alternatively, you can use the built-in function =PERCENTAGE(part, whole) to directly calculate the percentage rate without having to multiply by 100. Both of these methods can be used to easily calculate percentage rates in Google Sheets for various data sets.
RATE
Calculates the interest rate of an annuity investment based on constant-amount periodic payments and the assumption of a constant interest rate.
Sample Usage
RATE(12,-100,400,0,0,0.1)
RATE(A2,B2,C2,D2,1,0.08)
Syntax
RATE(number_of_periods, payment_per_period, present_value, [future_value, end_or_beginning, rate_guess])
number_of_periods– The number of payments to be made.payment_per_period– The amount per period to be paid.present_value– The current value of the annuity.future_value– [ OPTIONAL ] – The future value remaining after the final payment has been made.end_or_beginning– [ OPTIONAL –0by default ] – Whether payments are due at the end (0) or beginning (1) of each period.rate_guess– [ OPTIONAL – 0.1 by default ] – An estimate for what the interest rate will be.
