Chapter 3 Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

Lesson 2 Exponential and Logarithmic Equation

Chapter 4 Math of Investment

Lesson 1 Simple Interest
Lesson 2 Compound Interest

Lesson Description:
This module will help you learn the different types of functions and their corresponding
graphical representations. You will also learn the applications of these functions to real life;
some of which can be linked with other fields such as in business, medicine, sciences and others.
You will also learn that a certain function is unique to a specific situation. Functions will also
allow us to visualize existing between two variables. Also, we will investigate, analyze,
and solve problems involving simple and compound interests, simple and general annuities,
stocks and bonds, loans and amortization, and using appropriate business and financial
instruments.

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the student must be able to
1. define exponential and logarithmic equations;
2. Solve exponential and logarithmic equations

Review and Prerequisite Activity

Properties of Equalities

• Reflexive Property of Equality

x = x, y = y, and z = z
• Symmetric Property of Equality
if x = y, then y = x
• Transitive Property of Equality
if x = y, y = z, then x = z

A. Exponential Equation
• An exponential equation is one in which a variable occurs in the exponent.

The following are examples of exponential equations:

2 x =128

Chapter 4 Math of Investment

Lesson 1 Simple Interest
Lesson 2 Compound Interest

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the student must be able to
1. Illustrates simple and compound interest
2. Solve problems involving simple and compound interests.

Review and Pre-requisite Activity

A. Express each as a decimal.
1. 12% 2. 8 ½% 3. 200%

4. 3% 5. 10.5% 6. 0.75%

B. Answer each.
1. What percent of 24 is 12?

2. What is 25% of 108?

3. 48 is what percent of 60?

Converting Percent to Decimal

to convert a percent to decimal, drop the percent sign and move the decimal
places two places to the left.

Introduction
Simple interest is charged only on the loan amount called the Principal. Simple interest
is computed by multiplying the principal to the rate of interest by the number of payment periods
in a year.
Look at this problem.
You wish to have P 100,000 in 5 years and you are making a single deposit for the
purpose.

To illustrate, you invested 100,000 to an account that pays a simple interest of 3%

annually. Find the interest earned after 2 years.

Year 1: Interest = 100,000 x 3% x 1 = 3,000

Year 2: Interest = 100,000 x 3% x 1 = 3,000

The investment earned a total of P 6,000 after two years. Notice from above, the interest
earned in year 1 did not earn any interest.

Simple Interest
I =Prt
I - Interest earned r – rate of interest
P - Principal t – Time or terms in years

Example:
1. Teresa borrowed P 120, 000 from her uncle. If Teresa agreed to pay an 8% annual
interest rate, calculate the amount of interest she must pay if the loan period is 1 year, and 9
months.
Solution:
a. Given P = 120, 000, r = 8%, and t = 1 year. thus,
I =Prt=120,000 ( 0.08 )( 1 ) =P 9 ,600
b. Given P = 120, 000, r = 8%, and t = 0.75 year. thus,
I =Prt =120,000 ( 0.08 )( 0.75 )=P 7 ,200

2. To buy the school supplies for this coming school year, you get a summer job at a
resort. Suppose you save P 4,200 of your salary and deposit it in an account that earns simple
interest. After 9 months, the balance is P 4, 263. What is the annual interest rate?
Solution:
I
Use the formula, r = where P = 4,200, t = 9 months, I = P 63.
Pt

, r= =0.02∨2 %
4,200(0.75)
3. If P 10,000 is invested at 4.5% simple interest, how long will it take to grow to P
11,800?
Solution:
I
Use the formula, t= where P = 10, 000, r = 4.5%, I = P 1,800.
Pr
1,800
t= =4 years

When the interest due at the end of a certain period is added to the principal and that sum
earns interest for the next period, the interest paid is called Compound Interest.

A=P(1+r )t or A=P¿
K = compounding period

Compounding period Value

Annually 1
Semi-annually 2
Quarterly 4
Monthly 12
Daily 360

Example:
1. Find the compound interest on deposit at the end of 1 year if P 20,000 is deposited at 4%
compounded a. annually, b. semi-annually.
Solution:
a. Using the formula A=P(1+r )t, where P = 20, 000, r = 0.04 and t = 1, we have

A=20,000(1+0.04)1=P 20 , 800

r Kt
b. Using the formula A=P(1+ ) , where P = 20, 000, r = 0.04, K = 2 and t = 1, we have

A=20,000(1+ ) =P 20 ,808

2. Identify the interest rate per compounding period and the number of compounding
periods for reach of the following investments.
a. 12% compounded monthly for 4 years.
b. 10.2% compounded quarterly for 9 quarters.

a. r = 12%, K = 12, then r/12 = 0.12/12 = 0.01, the number of compounding period is 12t
= 12x4 = 48.
b. r = 10.2% and K = 4, then r/4 = 0.0102/4 = 0.026. the number of compounding period
is 9.

3. If P 320, 000 is invested for 5 years at 8% compounded quarterly, find a. the compound
amount and b. the compound interest.

Solution
a. r = 8%, K = 4, then r/K = 0.02. The number of compounding periods is 4t = 20.
