Paperback. New. The immense power of compound interest is such that adding a small amount of extra principal to each of your mortgage payments will result in thousands (or tens of thousands) in interest savings over the life of your loan. Using only high-school mathematics, Tim Hill provides clear and readable lessons that you can use to understand and pay down your mortgage by using Microsoft Excel (or any spreadsheet software). This entirely practical guide teaches you how to use worksheet functions, array formulas, data tables, and other spreadsheet features to manage your business and personal finances. You'll also learn the auxiliary skills needed to create and maintain financial spreadsheets: rounding numbers, date and time arithmetic, summing and counting values, and more. Plenty of examples show you how to use these tools for any type of debt or savings: mortgages, student loans, leases, credit-card debt, car payments, medical expenses, annuities, and retirement funds. You can download the sample workbooks to follow along with the author's examples and calculations. Covers all versions of Excel. Learn about basic financial concepts, including cash flows, timing issues, and the time value of money. Compute the payments needed to pay off a loan or to meet an investment target. Separate the interest and principal portions of your mortgage or loan payments for tax purposes. Convert between the commonly used methods of quoting interest rates. Create amortization schedules to see how your debts change over time. Build summary tables to compare loans that have different interest rates, loan amounts, or payment terms. Derive the true interest rate of your investments or loans, including ""interest-free"" loans. See how much time it will take to pay off a loan, meet an investment target, or retire. Determine how much to invest now to meet a future goal. Calculate how money will accumulate in your retirement or savings accounts. Contents Part I - Loans & Mortgages 1.

New. Congratulations for having landed a new job! Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it. The beginning is always today. New job is new YOU and time to start reinventing yourself in your career. Now comes the devious part of not only excelling but figuring out first things at workplace. Starting a new job is exciting time for motivations, time to meet new people, learn new skills, and become part of a team. But there are a number of things you need to get under your girdle before you can undoubtedly show your new colleagues and bosses your qualities. One of the most important things to do when starting a new job is to have a meeting with your boss and set clear expectations and performance objectives. The first 100 days in a new job are hustling time of need, thus, The Strategy Equation offers technical approaches and tackles emotional challenges faced by employees at workplace. This book is envisaged to help you plan your entry and guide you in the transition. Be open to learn new formulae, equations and analytical models as you adjust into the new role. The Strategy Equation is a breakthrough strategy for surviving and thriving in 100 days in a new job. It has magical tips and formulae. Whenever you turn a page, each tip begins to set itself and visualize in mind as your 'own thought'. This book becomes a treasure in 100 days when applying its principles. The formulae in this book are what I called ""alpha-numerical formulae"" for success. These are motivational, inspirational, not formulae generated algebraically but ""alphabetical"" in algebraical practices. There are also ""omega-numerical formulae"" for endurance - relieving stress and managing bad boss at workplace. This book is the healer. It makes you hustle harder. It is not just about getting and maintaining your job, but another one, ""What Colour is your Parachute?""As a new employee, you need to be determined and willing to go extra miles. You have to teach yourself new things. Your first 100 days in a new job will set the stage for your tenure at the organization. It's a make or break time in your career. It pays to approach your first 100 days in a new job with unblemished approach in mind. Many new employees are extremely enthusiastic to start their new roles right away and demonstrate values in order to secure their contracts.For anyone taking on a new role at managerial level, the first hundred days are seen as tradition of passage. It is a time for making meticulous debts about the task ahead, and winning the trust and confidence of those around you before deviations. You are eventually measured by your ability to resolve issues, set strategy, grow the business and achieve objectives. The first 100 days give you time to hardly scrape the surface, but this crucial period will help to ascertain a base for the longer term when you will be scrutinised and adjudicated by what you can really deliver. If you're a manager, try to figure out who the key players are in your organization and go networking with them. Start to help people around you to get under the skin of their roles. Once you've taken time to get to know about the organization you're working for and your stand within that department, just impulsively build relationship with your co-workers. I have been fired once. It was the worst job I have ever had. I pretended to be working as long as they pretended to pay me. Hence, I wasn't paid for six months until I got fired. I worked as office manager for state advisor to the local government. Today, I want to shift gears a little bit and talk about how getting fired can be a good thing, if you take the time to really learn from it. Getting fired was one of the best things that happened to me, because the lessons I learned shaped me. If you were fired and reading this, trust me, I know you might feel a little ashamed or embarrassed. When I got fired that summer, it was a major shock. It was like April Fools' Day.| Author: Deng Mangok Ayuel| Publisher: Independently Published| Publication Date: Dec 05, 2019| Number of Pages: 181 pages| Language: English| Binding: Paperback| ISBN-10: 1670937429| ISBN-13: 9781670937421, 6, 1998: Cambridge University Press, 1998.
