Hello all! :)

Need some help with the following prob I've got.

I have an education that costs say $100/week for the students.
The education is 4-8 months, and starts when I have a full class.
So to calculate my budget I need to now how many weeks the education has been per year.
I.e. If one class starts on dec.1 year 2004, and ends jan.14 year 2005, then there has been 4 weeks for year 2004 (i.e. $400) and 2 weeks for year 2005 ($200).

Which formula do I use?
I know which formula I need to use just to count weeks, but how do I separate them every year (so to speak).


Hope that the above is clear enough...

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.

YES!!! :)

This is exactly what I was looking for!
Only problem is that I can't get it to work in my sheet :(

I'm using Win98 and Excel'97, all swedish versions, could that be the problem?
I only get " #NAME? " in cell C2, column "Course length in weeks", and in cell E2 I get an error that complains on the refer D2.

The maximum length of a course shouldn't exceed the length of 1 year, but it may happen sometime in the future.

Many Thanks for your help! (y)

Dagge,

you have &YEAR
it must be & YEAR with a space !

perhaps Excel is making the error when translating from dutch to swedish ?
so I changed it but it's possible that you'll have to do it again yourself


kind regards,
Erik
