The FV function doesn’t account for the present value of your investment, and it assumes that payment is made at the end of each period.

FV(50;.11/12;5 * 12) returns 3975.90398429....
FV(2000;.12;30) + 5000 * (.12 + 1) ^ 30 returns 632464.97928640....
FV(500;.11/5;60) returns 61141.65130790....
To set the decimal precision of the returned value, enclose the current formulas with the Round function. For example, Round(Current Formula;2).
