Stuck on a calculation

I need to put in a java calculation that will calculate interest.

I tried the simplified field notation of:

TotalPrice = AmtFinanced (1+11.9) e52560

Total price is after 144 months compounded daily at 11.9% interest.

What am I doing wrong? I am NOT a Java author, just a schmuck that got assigned the job.

Simplified field notation only does the 4 basic arithmetic operations, no functions and no exponentiation not control loops, not set equal.

Can I do it in the Java field? If so, what would be the script?
