FORMULA

a(n) = n*(n+1)*(3*n^2+5*n+1)/6.

G.f.: x*(3+8*x+x^2)/(1-x)^5. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 13 2012

a(n) = sum((n+1-i)*((n+1)^2-i), i=1..n). - Bruno Berselli, Mar 13 2012

a(n) - a(n-1) = A099721(n). - Philippe Deléham, May 07 2012

EXAMPLE

a(8) = 8*80+7*79+6*78+5*77+4*76+3*75+2*74+1*73 = 2796. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 13 2012
