Description Risto Jääskeläinen 2010-08-17 19:18:14 UTC 
Normally financial functions are using their own string "Rate" as string for
argument. For example check PV and YIELD functions in Calc's Function Wizard.

For some reason NPV function is using string "RATE" and I guess from string for
RATE function's name.

1) RATE is somehow ugly string as an argument
2) In Finnish localization the names of functions are still in English. So this
RATE string is in place of more suitable "Korko" as normally argument string
"Rate" is translated.

I don't know if there is any reason use "RATE" string here?

Regards
Risto
