APRCalc 1.4 - A Windows Shareware Utility Thanks for trying APRCalc! Please read this brief message before the program is installed for you. APRCalc was meant to be a very small and simple payment calculator, and one that would allow the user to investigate various loan scenarios quickly. The four variables in an APR loan are the Amount Financed, the Term, the APR, and the Payment; setting any three of these determines the fourth. Typically, the user enters a value for each of the three known variables, and then clicks the "Calculate" button next to the field which is to be calculated. As each field is entered, the user input is checked for validity (for example, the term of the loan must be a reasonable counting number). An amortization function, with the ability to print or export a hardcopy, is provided as well. Prepayments to principal can be entered for any payments, and the effect on the amortization observed. A few options are included, such as the ability to watch the calculations progress (and to see the final, exact result) and to make the APRCalc window always stay on top. The standard Windows "Cut/Copy/Paste" functionality is supported. All option settings, numerical values, and the size and position of the windows can optionally be saved upon exit. Quarterly, monthly, biweekly, and weekly payment periods are supported. You can save individual scenarios in files. Breakeven date analysis for discount points is available. A complete Windows Help system is provided. APRCalc is not free software. It is shareware, which means you are expected to pay to register the program if you continue to use it. Your donation will encourage me to write more Windows programs and improve existing ones. To register your copy of APRCalc, please send $15 (along with a filled out hardcopy of the ORDER.TXT file) to: Larry Leonard P.O. Box 2226 Norcross, GA 30091-2226 Please include any comments or ideas for improvements. Thanks.
