1. How much will be the future worth of money after 12 months if the sum of P35,000 is invested today at a simple
interest rate of 3% per month?
F=P[1+ ( r ) (t ) ]
F=35,000[ 1+0.03 ( 12 ) ]
F=47,600
Answer: P47,600
2. A man expects to receive P125,000 in eight years. How much is that money worth now considering an interest rate
of 12% compounded quarterly?

P=48,542.13
Answer: P48,542.13
3. How long will it take the money to triple itself if invested at 9.5% compounded semi-annually?
F=3 P (1+i )n
0.095 n
3 P=P 1+( n

3=( 1.0475 )
ln (3)=( n ) ln (1.0475)

n=23.67
Thus,
n 23.67
