Initial principal balance = {formtext: name=value; cols=10; default=10000}
Interest rate = {formtext: name=interest; cols=10; default=0.2}
Number of time periods elapsed = {formtext: name=time; cols=5; default=10}
{if: isnumber(value) and isnumber(interest) and isnumber(time)}
Final amount = {=value*(1 + interest * time); format=$,.2f}
