Hi Reinhard,
Thank you very much for the comment.
I updated the formula, you are right, the second fraction is not part of the sum function (I should have checked it more carefully, my bad).
What I'm confused about the new equation is, the unknown r, is embeded in both numerator and denominator .
In the first equation, the unknown is only in the denominator.
Could you pls kindly show on how to solve the new equation using proc fcmp?
Sorry, I'm not farmilar with this function, thus asking you again, your help is Veryyy much appreciated.
