Formula: fv(fcRate / 100, fcNPer, 0, -pv((1 + fcRate / 100) / (1 + fcGrowth / 100) - 1, fcNper, fcPmt, 0, 1), 0)

FV / fcFv : The future value.
N / fcNper : The number of periods.
i% / fcRate : The periodic rate.
PMT / fcPmt : The base periodic payment at the beginning of period zero. This payment increases by g% each period.
g% / fcGrowth : The periodic growth rate of the payment.
