Hello,

I'm having trouble getting a log formula to work.  This forumla is supposed
to return the number of payment required zero out a loan balance.

<!-------   snip --------------->
/*
n = - (LN(1-(B/m)*(r/q)))/LN(1+(r/q))
q = amount of annual payment periods
r = interest rate
B = principal
m = payment amount
n = amount payment periods
LN = natural logarithm
*/
$q = 12;
$r = 0.07;
$B = 150000;
$m = 733;

print -(log(1-($B/$m)*($r/$q)))/log(1+($r/$q));

<--- end snip ---->

It keeps returning a NaN.  I've checked the syntax over and over, but to no
avail.

Any help would be appreciated

TIA

Jon
