使用牛顿法重新创建 Excel RATE 函数

Question

我正在用 PHP 转换抵押贷款计算器，但我不一定需要 PHP 解决方案。我正在寻找复制 Excel RATE 函数所需的逻辑。我找到了一个使用二分法的解决方案，如果情况变得更糟，我会使用它。

我知道互联网世界中有人知道这样的功能，所以我希望有一个简单的答案，而不是从头开始创建解决方案。

Answer 1

使用 PHPExcel 中的割线法（牛顿法的有限差分近似）实现 MS Excel RATE() 函数：

define('FINANCIAL_MAX_ITERATIONS', 128);
define('FINANCIAL_PRECISION', 1.0e-08);


function RATE($nper, $pmt, $pv, $fv = 0.0, $type = 0, $guess = 0.1) {

    $rate = $guess;
    if (abs($rate) < FINANCIAL_PRECISION) {
        $y = $pv * (1 + $nper * $rate) + $pmt * (1 + $rate * $type) * $nper + $fv;
    } else {
        $f = exp($nper * log(1 + $rate));
        $y = $pv * $f + $pmt * (1 / $rate + $type) * ($f - 1) + $fv;
    }
    $y0 = $pv + $pmt * $nper + $fv;
    $y1 = $pv * $f + $pmt * (1 / $rate + $type) * ($f - 1) + $fv;

    // find root by secant method
    $i  = $x0 = 0.0;
    $x1 = $rate;
    while ((abs($y0 - $y1) > FINANCIAL_PRECISION) && ($i < FINANCIAL_MAX_ITERATIONS)) {
        $rate = ($y1 * $x0 - $y0 * $x1) / ($y1 - $y0);
        $x0 = $x1;
        $x1 = $rate;

        if (abs($rate) < FINANCIAL_PRECISION) {
            $y = $pv * (1 + $nper * $rate) + $pmt * (1 + $rate * $type) * $nper + $fv;
        } else {
            $f = exp($nper * log(1 + $rate));
            $y = $pv * $f + $pmt * (1 / $rate + $type) * ($f - 1) + $fv;
        }

        $y0 = $y1;
        $y1 = $y;
        ++$i;
    }
    return $rate;
}   //  function RATE()

Answer 2

我尝试使用上面的代码，但结果与 Excel（或 Google 电子表格）完全不同。

我不知道你是否需要实现这个功能，但无论如何，我查看了这个算法是如何构建的，即使我无法访问 excel 源代码（或谷歌工作表），我发现这不是一个简单的计算。关于这个数学，可以在这里阅读更多内容：

https://brownmath.com/bsci/loan.htm#Eq8

PHP 中的函数可能是这样的：

function rate($nprest, $vlrparc, $vp, $guess = 0.25) {
    $maxit = 100;
    $precision = 14;
    $guess = round($guess,$precision);
    for ($i=0 ; $i<$maxit ; $i++) {
        $divdnd = $vlrparc - ( $vlrparc * (pow(1 + $guess , -$nprest)) ) - ($vp * $guess);
        $divisor = $nprest * $vlrparc * pow(1 + $guess , (-$nprest - 1)) - $vp;
        $newguess = $guess - ( $divdnd / $divisor );
        $newguess = round($newguess, $precision);
        if ($newguess == $guess) {
            return $newguess;
        } else {
            $guess = $newguess;
        }
    }
    return null;
}

Answer 3

对于 Laravel 使用相同的功能，但你删除了定义

define('FINANCIAL_MAX_ITERATIONS', 128);
define('FINANCIAL_PRECISION', 1.0e-08);

并且金融最大迭代次数 = 20； -> 相同的excel

代码是：

function RATE($nper, $pmt, $pv, $fv = 0.0, $type = 0, $guess = 0.1) {
    $financial_max_iterations = 20;
    $financial_precision = 0.00000008;

    $rate = $guess;
    if (abs($rate) < $financial_precision) {
        $y = $pv * (1 + $nper * $rate) + $pmt * (1 + $rate * $type) * $nper + $fv;
    } else {
        $f = exp($nper * log(1 + $rate));
        $y = $pv * $f + $pmt * (1 / $rate + $type) * ($f - 1) + $fv;
    }
    $y0 = $pv + $pmt * $nper + $fv;
    $y1 = $pv * $f + $pmt * (1 / $rate + $type) * ($f - 1) + $fv;

    // find root by secant method
    $i  = $x0 = 0.0;
    $x1 = $rate;
    while ((abs($y0 - $y1) > $financial_precision) && ($i < $financial_max_iterations)) {
        $rate = ($y1 * $x0 - $y0 * $x1) / ($y1 - $y0);
        $x0 = $x1;
        $x1 = $rate;

        if (abs($rate) < $financial_precision) {
            $y = $pv * (1 + $nper * $rate) + $pmt * (1 + $rate * $type) * $nper + $fv;
        } else {
            $f = exp($nper * log(1 + $rate));
            $y = $pv * $f + $pmt * (1 / $rate + $type) * ($f - 1) + $fv;
        }

        $y0 = $y1;
        $y1 = $y;
        ++$i;
    }
    return $rate;
}

TL;DR：这是一个 SQL Server 版本。它不适用于某些值，上面的 PHP 代码可能会因相同的值而失败。

长答案：我需要 SQL Server 的 RATE 函数。使用上面的 PHPExcel 答案，并使用 https://charlottecredittechnology.blogspot.com/2013/05/sql-2008-excel-like-rate-function-part.html 我写了一个 SQL Server 标量函数：

ALTER function [dbo].[Rate](
  @nper integer, @pmt float, @pv float, @fv float, @type bit = 0, @guess float = 0.1
) returns numeric(38,10) as
/*
Calculate the effective interest rate of a sequence of regular payments.
*/
begin    
  declare @returns numeric(38,10) = 0;
  if @type is null set @type = 0;

  declare @i integer;
  declare @rate float = @guess;
  declare @FINANCIAL_MAX_ITERATIONS integer = 100;
  declare @FINANCIAL_PRECISION float = 0.0000001;
  declare @y float, @y0 float, @y1 float, @f float, @x0 float, @x1 float;

  set @rate = @guess;
  if Abs(@rate) < @FINANCIAL_PRECISION
  begin
    set @f = 0;
    set @y = @pv * (1+@nper*@rate) + @pmt * (1+@rate*@type) * @nper + @fv;
  end
  else
  begin
    set @f = Exp(@nper * Log(1+@rate));
    set @y = @pv * @f + @pmt * (1/@rate + @type) * (@f-1) + @fv;
  end;
  set @y0 = @pv + @pmt * @nper + @fv;
  set @y1 = @pv * @f + @pmt * (1/@rate + @type) * (@f-1) + @fv;

  -- Newton secant method.
  set @i = 0;
  set @x0 = 0;
  set @x1 = @rate;
  while Abs(@y0-@y1) > @FINANCIAL_PRECISION and @i < @FINANCIAL_MAX_ITERATIONS
  begin
    set @rate = (@y1 * @x0 - @y0 * @x1) / (@y1-@y0);
    set @x0 = @x1;
    set @x1 = @rate;
    if Abs(@rate) < @FINANCIAL_PRECISION
    begin
      set @y = @pv * (1+@nper*@rate) + @pmt * (1+@rate*@type) * @nper + @fv;
    end
    else
    begin
      set @f = Exp(@nper * Log(1+@rate));
      set @y = @pv * @f + @pmt * (1/@rate + @type) * (@f-1) + @fv;
    end;
    set @y0 = @y1;
    set @y1 = @y;
    set @i = @i + 1;
  end;
  return Convert(numeric(38,10), @rate);
end;
