============================

This is the Finance Package (Ver 0.1).

   In all the functions, <rate> is the compound interest rate, <num> is
the number of periods and must be positive and <flow> refers to cash
flow so if you have an Output the flow is negative and positive for
Inputs.

   Note that before using the functions defined in this package, you
have to load it writing 'load(finance)$'.
