Convert output to currency format

Guys, I'm having an issue outputting the final value to "c" format on the below. I have a loan calculation function below and I would like the answer displayed as currency?

is there a better way to do the below calculation?

               double interest, pow = 1;
                interest = Convert.ToDouble(label10.Text);

                if (interest > 1.0)
                {
                    interest /= 100.0;

                }

                interest /= 12;
                for (int j = 0; j < Convert.ToInt32(label3.Text); j++)
                    pow *= (1 + interest);

label7.Text = Convert.ToString(Math.Round((Convert.ToDouble(newVehOTRLabel2.Text) * pow * interest) / (pow - 1)));

Accepted answer
System.Globalization.NumberFormatInfo nfi;
nfi = new NumberFormatInfo();
nfi.CurrencySymbol = "$";
label7.Text = string.Format(nfi, "{0:C}", (Math.Round((Convert.ToDouble(newVehOTRLabel2.Text) * pow * interest) / (pow - 1))));
