Thank everyone for suggestion.

F=A*((1+r)^n-1)/r

r = interest rate
n = number of installment for a fixed investment plan
A = fixed amount for each installment
F = Final capital value

For example, an insurance saving plan offers $20,000 return in the 
next
20 years by paying $600 every year. How to determine the interest 
rate?
((1+r)^n-1)/r = $20,000 / $600 = 33.333, when n is 20, then r will
equal to approximate 5%.

0% < r, r is a real number for the interest rate, which could be 10% 
or
300%
n is a positive integer for any number of term.

Does anyone have any suggestion on how to express r in term of F and 
A?
Thank everyone for any suggestion
Eric
