I don’t know how often you need to solve for loan amount using rate, term and payment, but this simple calculator would allow you to vary three of the four variables.
Excel uses different functions to calculate those different variables i.e. pmt for payment, rate for rate, pv for principal and nper for number of payments. It will require 4 different calculations.
Try putting this question in the computer section. The techies should definitely have an answer for you there.
