Ladder Worksheet
An Excel spreadsheet is available that gives you the opportunity to see how laddering can work for you. It is suggested that you only change the entries in "red". By entering the "Market CD Rates" and the "Rate Assumption" you can see how laddered CD's perform in either an up or down market. This spreadsheet and graph assume that you allow the interest to compound and that compounding is at least annually. Actual results may vary and the spreadsheet is no guarantee of actual results.
