    Calculating Interest Over 30years With Monthly deposits

    What would be the formula I use to calculate the ending balance of an Account with $45 monthly deposits, with 8% annual interest, over 30 years?

    C1 initial value 0
    C2 compounding periods per year 12
    C3 nominal interest rate, compounded n times per year 0.08
    C4 periodic interest rate =0.08/12 0.006666667
    C5 number of years 30
    C6 number of compounding periods =12*30 360
    C7 periodic deposit 45

    shg's FV function assumes payments are made at the end of each period, mehmetcik's assumes at the start of each period.
