Background Information
Suppose you have saved Php10 000.00 and you plan to invest it for 5 years. A cooperative
group offers 2% simple interest rate per year. A bank offers 2%
compounded annually. Which will you choose from these two offers, and
why? And what are some ways to take care of your hard-earned money?
As you can see simple interest remains constant throughout the investment term. In
compound interest, the interest from the previous year also earns interest. Thus, the interest
grows every year. Hence, Investment 2 provides a better interest.
Definitions:
Lender or Creditor – person (or institution) who invests the money or makes the funds
available
Borrower or Debtor – person (or institution) who owes the money or avails of the funds from
the lender
Origin or Loan Date – date on which money is received by the borrower
Repayment Date or Maturity Date – date on which the money borrowed or loan is to be
completely repaid
Time or Term (t) – amount of time in years the money is borrowed or invested; length of time
between the origin and maturity date
Principal (P) – amount of money borrowed or invested on the origin date
Rate (r) – annual rate, usually in percent, charged by the lender, or rate of increase of the
investment
Interest (I) – amount paid or earned for the use of money
Simple Interest (Is) – interest that is computed on the principal and then added to it
Compound Interest (Ic) – interest is computed on the principal and also on the accumulated
past interests
Maturity Value or Future Value (F) – amount after t years that the lender receives from the
borrower on the maturity date
The amount of money charged for the use of borrowed money is interest expense from the
point of view of the borrower; the amount of money earned on invested money or money lent
is interest income from the point of view of the creditor. Interest is computed on the original
principal for any time period or length of time money is borrowed or lent/ invested is termed as
simple interest. The simple interest formula is: 𝑰 = 𝑷 ∙ 𝒓∙ 𝒕
From this, we can derive and get the formulas for P, r and t.

a.𝑃 = 𝑟𝑡
b. 𝑟 = 𝑃𝑡
c. 𝑡 = 𝑃𝑟 P r t
When we deposit money in the bank, we are, in effect, lending our money to the bank.
The bank usually uses our money to grant loans to borrowers. The bank pays the depositor
interest on money deposited. Similarly, when we go to the bank and borrow money, we are
the ones paying interest to the bank for the money that we borrow.
Example 1: Tessa borrowed Php 20 000.00 at 12% interest for 2 years. Find the interest (I)
and the maturity value (F).
Solutions:
Given: Php = 20000 r = 12% or 0.12 t = 2 years
Note: If we are not asked for the amount of interest, but only for the future value, we can
make use of formula:
𝐹 = 𝑃(𝐼 + rt)
= 20,000 [1 + (12%)(2)]
= 20,000 [1 + (. 12)(2)]
= 20,000 [1 + 0.24]
= 20,000 [1 .24]
𝐹 = 𝑃hp 24 800.00
Knowing the maturity value, it would be very easy to get the interest. We simply
deduct the principal (P) from the maturity value (F), thus:
𝐼 =𝐹−𝑃
= 24 800 − 20 000
𝐼 = 𝑃hp 4 800.00
Example 2: How much is the simple interest on Php 17 600.00 for 7 months at 7.5%?
𝑀
Note: When the term is expressed in months (M), it should be converted in years by 𝑡 =
12
Example 3: To buy the school supplies for the coming school year, you get a summer job at
a resort. Suppose you save Php 4 200.00 of your salary and deposit it into an account that
earns simple interest. After 9 months, the balance is Php 4 263.00. What is the annual
interest rate?
Solution:
Given: P = 4 200
F = 4 263
9 3
t = 9 months or 12 or 4 or 0.75
Example 4: If Php 10 000.00 is invested at 4.5 % simple interest, how long will it take to
grow to Php 11 800.00?
Solution:
Given: P = 10 000
F = 11 800
r = 4.5 % 𝑜r 0.045
While the periods of many loans are expressed in months, it is also common practice
for loans to be payable after a certain number of days such as 30 days or 145 days. The
duration of the loan may even be for a particular period such as January 25 to October 12 of
the same year.
To find the number of days between dates, there are two quick ways to remember the
number of days in each of the months. These two quick ways are the Rhyme Method and the
Knuckle Method.
The Rhyme Method The Knuckle Method
Solution:
Using the days-in –month, we need to know how many days are there in each
month. 90 days from September 8, 2014.
September 9 – 30 22 (day 1 starts at September 9)
October 1- 31 31
November 1 - 30 30
December 1 - 7 7 (7 days are needed to have a total of 90)
TOTAL 90
Example 6: Find the number of days from March 25 to July 15 of the same year.
Solution:
March 26 – 31 6 (day 1 starts at March 26)
April 1- 30 30
May 1 – 31 31
June 1- 30 30
July 1 – 15 15
TOTAL 112 days
Exact interest (Ie) is used when the computations require the use of the exact number
of days in a year, 365 days or 366 days (1 day is added after the end of February in a leap
year).
Ordinary interest (Io) or banker’s interest is used when interest is computed on the
basis of an assumed 30-day period per month or 360 days in one year.
Example 7: An amount of Php 37 500.00 was borrowed at 8.5% simple interest in 120 days.
Compute the exact and ordinary interests.
Solution:
Given: P = 37 500
r = 8.5% or 0.085
t = 120 days
Example 8: An amount of Php 54 000.00 is invested at 8% simple interest on March 15. Find
the amount of a) exact interest and b) ordinary interest earnings from August 11 of the same
year and determine the c) difference in earnings between the two interests.
March 16 - 31 16
April 1 - 30 30
May 1 - 31 31
June 1 - 30 30
July 1 - 31 31
August 1 - 11 11
Total no. of days 149
Given: P = 54 000
r = 8% or 0.08
t = March 15 – August 11 of the same year
c. Difference = Io - Ie
= 1 788 – 1 763.52
Difference = Php 24.49
Activity 1: Answer each of the following. Write the answer with complete solutions on a
sheet of paper.

Background Information
In business, capital is very important. However, not
all business owners always have enough capital to sustain
their business. They have to borrow money for the business.
In the previous lesson, we discussed simple interest where
interest is charged on the principal alone for the entire length
of the loan. Simple interest loans are usually offered by
banks to individuals and businessmen for short-term periods.
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.
Example: Arthur borrows Php 40 000.00 at 6% simple interest for a period of 1 year. At the
end of one year, how much must he pay? How much must he pay at the end of the second
year? How much must he pay at the end of the third year?

First Year Php 40 000.00 40 000 𝑥 0.06 𝑥 1 = 2 400.00 40 000 + 2 400 = 42 400.00
Second Year Php 42 400.00 42 400 𝑥 0.06 𝑥 1 = 2 544.00 42 400 + 2 544 = 44 944.00

The amount (F) at the end of the year is equal to the sum of the principal (P) and the
interest (Pr) for that year. In symbols,
𝐹 = 𝑃 + I or
In general, when interest is compounded annually for n years, the amount (f) is
𝐹 = 𝑃 (1 + r )t

In the example 1b, the period (interval for compounding) is 6 months. There are two
periods per year:
𝑟
• the rate is per period,

• the number of periods in n years is 2n.
In general, the pattern can be extended for compounding K times per year to get

Simple and General Annuities
Background Information
One of the dreams of every Filipino family is to buy a house where they can
comfortably live. However, most often they cannot afford to purchase
such property in cash. One of the options to purchase it is payment in
installment basis. For this situation, the concept of annuities
will be used. In this module, learners should be able to investigate and
analyze problems involving simple and general annuities.
Example: Mr. and Mrs. Bautista are planning to purchase a new house despite of their limited
budget. They asked an advice from a bank for them to produce an amount for the down
payment of the house they have chosen. According to the bank if Php 20 000.00 will be
invested at the end of each year for 5 years in an account that pays interest at 10%
compounded annually the couple will be able to have the amount for down payment. If there
are three houses for sale offering a 10% down payment of the price which among these is the
“best” choice to buy?
House A – Php 850 740.00 House B – Php 1 221 020.00 House C – Php 2 110 000.00
Abstraction
If you will notice, the problem involves payment for each period which is Php 20 000.00
at the end of each year and fixed compound interest rate over a specified time; that in this
case is 10% compounded annually for 5 years.
If the payment for each period is fixed and the compound interest rate is fixed over a
specified time the payment is called an annuity payment. Accounts associated with streams
of annuity payments are called annuities.
• Definition of Terms
Annuity– a sequence of equal payments made regularly (or periodically). Examples
are monthly rents and annual insurance premiums. The time between successive
payments is a payment interval. The time between the first payment interval and
the last payment is called the term of the annuity. The amount of each payment is
referred as the periodic payment.
Simple Annuity – payment interval is the same as the interest period.
Example: Installment payment for an appliance at the end of each month with interest
compounded monthly.
General Annuity – payment interval is not the same as the interest period.
Example: Installment payment for an appliance at the end of each month with interest
compounded annually.
Ordinary Annuity – (annuity immediate) periodic payment is made at the end of each
payment Interval.
Annuity Due – periodic payment made at the beginning of each payment interval.
Annuity Certain – payable for a definite duration
Example: Installment basis of paying a car, motorcycle, appliance, house and lot
Annuity Uncertain – payable for an indefinite duration
Example: life insurance
Term of an annuity, t – time between the first payment interval and last payment interval
Regular or Periodic payment, R – the amount of each payment
Amount (Future Value) of an annuity, F – sum of future values of all the payments to be
made during the entire of the annuity
Present value of an annuity, P – sum of all the payments to be made during the entire term
of the annuity
Example 1: Determine whether the given situation is simple annuity or general annuity.
1. Payments are made at the end of each month for a loan that charges 1.05% interest
compounded quarterly. Answer: General Annuity
Since the payment of interval at the end of the month is not equal to the compounding
interval.
2. A deposit of Php 5 500.00 was made at the end of every three months to an account that
earns 5.6% interest compounded quarterly. Answer: Simple Annuity
Since the payment of interval at the end of every three months (or quarterly) is equal
to the compounding interval.
A Simple Ordinary Annuity is a simple annuity in which the periodic payment is made at the
end of the payment interval. The following are the formulas in getting the future and present
value:
Given: R = 25 000 m =1
r = 8% or 0.08 n = tm = (5x1) = 5
t=5 𝑟 0.08
j=𝑚= 1

Solution:
𝑅[(1+𝑗)𝑛 −1]
𝐹=

25 000[(1+0.08)5 −1]
= 0.08
25 000[(1.08)5 −1]
= 0.08
𝑭 = Php 146 665.02
Example 3: Suppose Mrs. Manaloto would like to know the present value of her monthly
deposits of Php 3 000.00 when the interest is 9% compounded monthly. How much is the
amount or future value of her savings at the end of 6 months?
Given: R = 3 000 m = 12
r = 9% or 0.09 n = tm = 6
6 𝑟
t = 6 mos or or 0.5 j= = 0.0075
12 𝑚
𝑅[(1+𝑗)−𝑛 −1]
Solution: P = −𝑗
3 000[(1+0.0075)−6 −1]
= −0.0075
P = Php 17 536.79
General Ordinary Annuity is a general annuity in which the periodic payment is made at
the end of the payment interval. The following are the formulas in getting the future and
present value:
𝑝
where: 𝑏 = 𝑐
p = number of months in a payment interval
c = number of months in a compounding period
Example 4: Php 25 000.00 will be invested in an account at the end of each year at 4%
compounded semi-annually. How much is the amount at the end of 15 years?
Given: R = 25 000 n = tm = 30
r = 4% or 0.04 p = 12 (yearly)
m=2 c = 6 (semi-annually)
t = 15 b=2
𝑟
j = 𝑚= 0.02

(1.02)30 −1
= 25 000 [ (1.02)2 −1 ]
F = Php 502 080.19
Example 2: Jovae borrowed an amount of money from Mj. He agrees to pay the principal plus
interest by paying Php 38 973.76 each year for 3 years. How much did he borrow if the interest
is 8% compounded quarterly?
Given: R = 38 973.76 n = tm = 12
r = 8% or 0.08 p = 12 (yearly)
m=4 c = 3 (3 months per quarter)
t=3 b= 4
𝑟
j = 𝑚 = 0.02

(1 + 0.02)4 − 1
1 − (1.02)−12

terms, Php 2 500.00 each month for the next 6 months at 9%
compounded annually.
Questions:
1. If you were the buyer, what would you prefer, cash or
installment? Why?
2. If you would choose the cash term, how would you know that it is a better offer?
This is called Fair Market Value (FMV). The fair market value or economic value of a
cash flow (payment stream) on a particular date refers to a single amount that is equivalent to
the value of the payment stream at the date. The particular date is called the focal date. A
cash flow is a term that refers to payments received (cash inflows) or payments or deposits
made (cash outflows). Cash inflows can be represented by positive numbers and cash
outflows can be represented by negative numbers.
To calculate the fair market value of a cash flow stream of the problem stated above,
we need to compute the market value of the television set on installment terms, then
compare it to the cash term.
𝑅[(1+𝑗)−𝑛 −1]
Solution: P= −𝑗
2 500[(1+0.007207)−6 −1]
= −0.007207
P = Php 14 628.79
The present value of installment is Php 14 628.79, better to pay Php 13 499 if cash is
available, or wait until you can save enough cash than to pay by installment.
Example 1: Company A offers Php 150 000.00 at the end of 3 years plus Php 300 000.00 at
the end of 5 years. Company B offers Php 25 000.00 at the end of each quarter for the next
5 years. Assume that money is worth 8% compounded annually. Which offer has a better
market value?
Given:
Company A Company B
Solution:
To compare the two companies, let’s find the fair market value of each offer.
Company A offers:
The present value of Php 150 000.00 three years from now is
P1 = F (1 + j) -n
= 150 000(1 + 0.04) -6
P1 = Php 118 547.18
The present value of Php 300 000.00 five years from now is
P2 = F (1 + j) -n
= 300 000(1 + 0.04) -10
P2 = Php 202 669.25
Fair Market Value (FMV) = P1 + P2
= 118 547.18 + 202 669.25
FMV = Php 321 216.43
Company B offer: Compute for the present value of a general annuity with quarterly
payments but with semi-annual compounding at 8%.
(1+0.019803903)−20
= 25 000 (1 − 0.019803903
)
Therefore, Company B’s offer is preferable since the market value is larger.
Example 2: Suppose Mr. Gutierrez wants to purchase a cellular phone. He decided to pay
monthly for 1 year starting at the end of the month. How much is the cost of a cellular phone
if his monthly payment is Php 2 500.00 and interest is 9% compounded monthly?
Solution:
Example 3: What if Mr. Gutierrez is considering another cellular phone that has a different
payment scheme? In this scheme, he has to pay Php 2 500.00 for 1 year starting at the end
of the fourth month. If the interest rate is also 9% converted monthly, how much is the cash
value of the cellular phone?
To answer this problem, notice that the two payment schemes have the same number
of payments n and the same interest rate per period j. Their main difference is the start of the
payments. The first scheme started at the end of the first interval which make it an ordinary
annuity. The second scheme started on a later date. This annuity is called deferred annuity. A
deferred annuity is an annuity that does not begin until a given time interval has passed. The
Period of Deferral is time between the purchase of an annuity and the start of the payments
for the deferred annuity.
Note that for deferred annuities, the start of the payment is for a later date. In this
example, Mr. Gutierrez pay starting at the end of the 4th month to the end of the 15 th month.
Now, how do we get the present value of this annuity?
Step 1: We first assume payments are also being made during the period of deferral: in
other words, there are no skipped payments.
From the previous lesson, the present value P ’of this ordinary annuity is given by:
1− (1+𝑗)−𝑛
P’ = R 𝑗
1− (1+0.0075)−15
= 2 500 0.0075
P’ = Php 35 342.49
Step 2: We now subtract the present value of the payments made during the period of deferral.
Again, based on the previous lesson, the present value P* of the 3 payments during the period
of deferral is :
1− (1+𝑗)−𝑛
P* = R
𝑗
1− (1+0.0075)−3
= 2 500 0.0075
Step 3: Since the payments in the period of deferral are artificial payments, we subtract
the present values of this payments. We obtain,
P = P’ – P* = 35.49 – 7 388.89 = 27 953.60
Thus, the present value of the new cellular phone is Php 27 953.60
Comparing the present values of the two schemes, the present value in the second scheme
is lower than the present value of the first because the payments in the second scheme will
be received on a later date.
P = Rk + n – Rk
1− (1+𝑗)−( 𝑘+𝑛) 1− (1+𝑗)−𝑘
=R -R
𝑗 𝑗

Basic Concepts of Stocks and Bonds
Background Information
Some corporations may raise money for their expansion by
issuing stocks. Stocks are shares in the ownership of the
company. Owners of stocks may be considered as part -owner
of the company.
Stocks can be bought or sold at its current price is called the
market value. When a person buys some shares, the person
receives a certificate with the corporation’s name, owner’s name, number of shares and par
value per share.
STOCKS BONDS

𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑆ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑠
Example 1: A certain financial institution declared a Php 30 000 000.00 dividend for
the common stocks. If there are a total of 700 000 shares of common stock, how
much is the dividend per share?
Given: Total Dividend = 30 000 000.00
Total Shares= 700 000
Find: Dividend per share
Solution:
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐷𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑑
𝐷𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑑 𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒 =
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑆ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑠
30 000 000

700 000
𝐷𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑑 𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒 = Php 42.86
Example 2: A certain corporation declared 3% dividend on a stock with a par value of Php
500.00. Mrs. Lingan owns 200 shares of stocks with a par value of Php 500.00. How much is
the dividend she received?
Example 3: Corporation A, with a current market value of Php 52.00, gave a dividend of Php
8.00 per share for its common stock. Corporation B, with a current market value of Php 95.00,
gave a dividend of Php 12.00 per share. Use the stock yield ratio to measure how much
dividends shareholders are getting in relation to the amount invested.
Solutions:
Corporation A Corporation B
Given: Dividend per share = Php 8.00 Given: Dividend per share = Php 12.00
Market Value = Php 52.00 Market Value = Php 95.00
Corporation A has a higher stock yield ratio than Corporation B. Thus, each peso would earn
you more if you invest in Corporation A than in Corporation B. If all other things are equal,
then it is wiser to invest in Corporation A. As this example shows, the stock yield ratio can be
used to compare two or more investments.
Coupon - periodic interest payment that the bondholder receives during the time between
purchase date and maturity date; usually received semi-annually
Par Value or Face Value - the amount payable on the maturity date; denoted by F
If P = F, the bond is purchased at par
If P < F, the bond is purchased at a discount
If P > F, the bond is purchased at premium
Term or Tenor of a Bond- fixed period of time (in years) at which the bond is redeemable as
stated in the bond certificate; number of years from time of purchase to maturity date
Fair Price of a Bond- present value of all cash inflows to the bondholder
Example 4: Determine the amount of the semi-annual coupon for a bond with a face value
of Php 300 000.00 that pays 10%, payable semi-annually for its coupons.
Solution:
Annual Coupon Amount: 300 000 (0.10) = Php 30 000.00
1
Semi-Annual Coupon Amount: 30 000 (2) = Php 15 000.00
The coupon rate is used only for computing the coupon amount, usually paid semi-
annually. It is not the rate at which money grows. Instead current market conditions
are reflected by the market rate and is used to compute the present value of future
payments.
Example 5: Suppose that a bond has a face value of Php 100 000.00 and its maturity date is
10 years from now. The coupon rate is 5% payable semi-annually. Find the fair price of this
bond, assuming that the annual market rate is 4%.
0.05
Solution: 𝐴𝑚𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑒𝑚𝑖 − 𝐴𝑛𝑛𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑝𝑜𝑛: 100 000 ( ) = 𝑃ℎ𝑝 2 500.00
2
Thus, a price of Php 108 512.14 is equivalent to all future payments, assuming an annual
market rate of 4%.

Background Information
The basic concepts of loans are very familiar to every individual. Through
loans, people, businessmen, entrepreneurs, and even family persons receive
assistance in addressing financial needs from different lending corporations. Loans
is not just limited to borrowing money in a bank to finance business expansion, but
also covers the use of credit card, amortizing appliances, and many more.
Your family is planning to apply for a loan to purchase a brand-new car. Two banks
offered you two different payment schemes. Which scheme will you choose?
A B
The following are the terminologies that are used in this module:
Business Loan – money lent specifically for a business purpose. It may be used to start a
business or to have a business expansion.
Collateral – assets used to secure the loan. It may be real-state or other investments.
Example 1: Mr. Arcilla plans to have a barbershop. He wants to borrow some money from the
bank in order for him to buy the equipment and furniture for the barbershop.
Answer: Business Loan
Example 2: Mr. and Mrs. Viloria wants to borrow money from the bank to finance the college
education of their son. Answer: Consumer Loan
Example 3: Mr. Austria wants to have some improvements on their 10-year old house. He
wants to build a new room for their 13-year old daughter. He will borrow some money from
the bank to finance this plan. Answer: Consumer Loan
Example 4: Mr. Diaz owns a siomai food cart business. He wants to put another food cart on
a new mall in the other city. He decided to have a loan to establish the new business.
Answer: Business Loan
Example 5: Irene has a computer shop. She owns 6 computers. She decided to borrow some
money from the bank to buy 10 more computers. Answer: Business Loan
Example 6: Mr. Sula borrowed Php 1 000 000.00 for the expansion of his business. The
effective rate of interest is 7%. The loan is to be repaid in full after one year. How much is
to be paid after one year?
𝑟 0.07
Given: P = 1 000 000 𝑗=𝑚= 1
= 0.07 Find: F
r =0.07 n = mt = (1)(0.07) = 1
m=1
Therefore, an amount of Php 1 070 000.00 must be paid after one year.
Example 7: (Chattel Mortgage). A person borrowed Php1 200 000.00 for the purchase of a
car. If his monthly is Php 31 000.00 on a 5-year mortgage, find the total amount of interest.
Solution:
Down payment = Down payment rate x Cash Price
= 0.20(3 000 000)
= Php 600 000.00
Alternate Solution:
Mortgage = Cash Value x Percentage
= (3 000 000) (0.80) 80% = 100% -20% downpayment
Note: In this case, the house itself is used as the mortgage property.
• Outstanding Balance
Recall that the outstanding balance of a loan is the amount of the loan at this time. One
method to compute the outstanding balance is to get the present value of all remaining
payments. This method is called the prospective method. We use the symbol 𝐵𝑘 to denote
the outstanding balance after k payments.
−(𝑛−𝑘)
1 − (1 + 𝑗)
𝐵𝑘 = 𝑅 [ ]
𝑗
where: 𝐵𝑘 = outstanding balance after k payments
R = Periodic Payment
j = rate of interest per conversion period
n – k = number of unpaid periodic payments
Example 9: Mrs. Villavicencio borrowed some money from a bank that offers an interest rate
of 12% compounded monthly. Her monthly amortization for 5 years is Php 11 122.22. How
much is the outstanding balance after the 12th payment?
Solution:
−(𝑛−𝑘)
1 − (1 + 𝑗)
𝐵𝑘 = 𝑅 [ ]
𝑗
−48
1 − (1 + 0.01)
= 11 122.22 [ ]
0.01
𝐵𝑘 = Php 422 354.73
The outstanding balance after the 12th payment is Php 422 354.73.
Example 10: Mr. and Mrs. Cruz purchased a house and lot worth Php 4 000 000.00 They
paid a down payment of Php 800 000.00 They plan to amortize the loan of Php 3 200 000.00
by paying monthly for 20 years. The interest rate is 12% convertible monthly.
R = Php 35 234. 76
Therefore, the monthly payment is Php 35 234. 76
The 51st payment of Php 35 234.76 is partly used to pay for the principal,
and partly to pay for the interest.
Step 1: Get the outstanding balance after the 50th payment (the balance after the 50th
payment is what the 51st payment will be for).
Since 50 payments have been paid already, there will be 190 remaining payments.
1− (1+𝑗)−(𝑛−𝑘)
𝐵𝑘 = 𝑅 [ 𝑗
]
1− (1+0.01)−190
= 35 234.76 [ ]
0.01
𝐵𝑘 = Php 2 991. 477.63
Step 2: After the 50th payment, the outstanding balance is Php 2 991 477.63. Since the
interest rate per period is 𝑗 = 0.01, then the remaining balance of Php 2 991 477.63
will be charged an interest of (0.01)( Php 2 991 477.63) = Php 29 914.78
The 51st payment of 𝑃ℎ𝑝 35 234.76 will be used to pay the interest. Thus, the
interest component 𝐼51 of the 51st payment is Php 29 914.78
The remaining portion of the 51st payment is the principal component, denoted by 𝑃𝑅51, is:
𝑃𝑅51 = 𝑅 −𝐼50
= 35 234.76 – 29 914.78
𝑃𝑅51 = Php 5 319.98
Thus, for the 51st payment, the part goes to pay the interest is Php 29 914.78 and the
part that goes to pay the principal is Php 5 319.98.

Logic is the basis of all mathematical reasoning, and of all automated reasoning. The rules
of logic specify the meaning of mathematical statements. These rules help us understand
and reason with statements such as:
In English, this simply means “There exists an integer that is not the sum of two squares”.
In your everyday life, you provide information about yourself, people, things, and/or events.
When you say for example, “The weather is hot,” you have just stated something which
philosophers call a proposition.
A proposition is a declarative sentence that is either true or false but cannot be both.
If a proposition is true, then its truth value is true, which is denoted by T; otherwise, its truth
value is false, which is denoted by F.
Propositions are usually denoted by small letters. For example, the proposition
Definition: A proposition is said to be simple if it has only one subject and one predicate.
It cannot be broken down any further into other component propositions.
Examples:
1. Charlie is neat.
2. DepEd Division off Angeles City is located in Barangay Pulungbulu.
3. 2 + 2 = 4

Solution.
p1: Again, both simple components of are true. Therefore, the biconditional statement is true.
p2: It is true that Geebee is in Grade 11, but it is not true that Geebee is working as a lawyer.
Therefore, the biconditional is not true, referring to the second row of its truth table.
p3: The first simple proposition, that Geebee has a degree in Computer Science, is false.
The truth value of the entire biconditional depends on the truth value of the second
simple component, that she believes in true love. If this is true, then the biconditional is
false (referring to the third row of the truth table); otherwise, the biconditional is true.
a) Annie does not have a stomach ache, yet she misses the exam.
b) If Annie has a stomach ache, then she misses the exam and does not
receive a passing grade for the subject.
c) Either Annie has a stomach ache and misses the exam, or she does not
miss the exam and she receives a passing grade for the subject.

Background Information
Recall that a simple proposition is a statement with truth values, either that statement is
true or false.
The proposition p: “A triangle is a polygon” has a True truth value and the proposition
q: “The sum of 3 and 5 is 2” has a False Truth value. What is the truth value of the compound
proposition “A triangle is a polygon and the sum of 3 and 5 is 2?”
Combining two or more simple propositions using logical connectives will result in the
formation of new proposition. To determine whether the truth value of the new proposition is
true or false, It is helpful to list all possible truth values using the truth table.
A truth table displays the relationship between all possible truth values of the simple
proposition and the compound proposition. Recall that in the previous lesson, there are five
truth tables that are result of five common connectives: negation, disjunction, conjunction,
conditional and bic0nditional.
The truth table is constructed to determine the validity and invalidity of the argument.
This presents all possible truth combination combinations of the component propositions within
the argument.
In constructing truth table, we should master the truth table of logical operators
because we are going to use them to determine all the possible truth values of more complex
compound propositions using truth tables.
As previously discussed, since there are two primitive propositions p and q involve,
the truth table should have four row which consist of all possible truth values combination p
and q.

Based on the truth tables of the given compound propositions p ˅ q is equivalent to ~ p →𝑞.
Definition. Two propositions p and q are logically equivalent, denoted by p ⇔ q, if they have
the same truth values for all possible truth values of their simple components. Logical
equivalence can also be expressed in terms of a biconditional statement. Two propositions p
and q are logically equivalent if the proposition p ↔𝑞𝑞 is always true (or is a tautology).
Example : Show that (p →𝑞) ⇔ [ (~ p) ˅ q ] . We shall call this logical equivalence the
Switcheroo law.
Solution:
We need to show that p →𝑞𝑞 and (~ p) ˅ q have the same truth values using a truth table.
p q p →𝒒 ~p (~ p) ˅ q
T T T F T
T F F F F
F T T T T
F F T T T
Notice that the third and fifth columns of the truth table above contains the same truth values
in the same sequence. Thus (p →𝑞) ⇔ [ (~ p) ˅ q].
The table below shows the different logical equivalences that are used when manipulating
compound propositions.
Theorem (Table of Logical Equivalences). Let p, q, and r be propositions. We
have the following logical equivalences.
Identity Laws (p ˄ 𝜏) ⇔ p (p ˅ ∅) ⇔ p
Domination Law (p ˅ 𝜏) ⇔ 𝜏 (p ˄ ∅) ⇔ ∅
Idempotent Laws (p ˅ 𝑝) ⇔ 𝑝 (p ˄ 𝑝) ⇔ 𝑝
Inverse Laws [p ˅ (~ p)] ⇔ 𝜏 [p ˄ (~ p)] ⇔ ∅
Double Negation ~ (~ p) ⇔ 𝑝
Associative Laws p ˅( q ˅ r ) ⇔( p ˅ 𝑞) ˅ r p ˄ ( q ˄ r ) ⇔( p ˄ 𝑞) ˄ r
Commutative Laws p˅𝑞⇔q˅𝑝 p˄𝑞⇔q˄𝑝
Distributive Laws p ˅( q ˄ r ) ⇔( p ˅ 𝑞) ˄( p ˅ 𝑟) p ˄ ( q ˅ r ) ⇔( p ˄ 𝑞) ˅ ( p ˄ 𝑟)
De Morgan’s Laws ~ (p ˅ 𝑞) ⇔(~ p) ˄ (~ q) ~ (p ˄ 𝑞) ⇔(~ p) ˅ (~ q)
Absorption Laws p ˅ (p ˄ 𝑞) ⇔ 𝑝 p ˄ (p ˅ 𝑞) ⇔ 𝑝
Solution:
One way to do this is to construct a truth table for each logical expression then show that
they have the same truth values. Another method is to use the logical equivalences to
transform ~ (p →𝑞) into p ˄ (~ q)
Reason
⇔ ~ (p →𝑞) Given
⇔ ~ ((~ p) ˅ 𝑞) Switcheroo
⇔ ~ (~ p) ˄ (~ q) De Morgan’s Law
⇔ p ˄ (~ q) Double Negation
Example 4: Let p and q be propositions. Construct the truth tables for each of the following
conditionals: p →𝑞, q →𝑝, (~ p) → (~ 𝑞), (~ q) → (~ 𝑝).
p q ~p ~q p →𝒒 q →𝒑 (~ p) → (~ q) (~ q) → (~ p)
T T F F T T T T
T F F T F T T F
F T T F T F F T
F F T T T T T T
Note that the fifth and eighth columns are the same, so we have shown that
(p →𝑞) ⇔ [(~ q) → (~ p)] . Likewise, since the sixth and seventh columns are identical, it
follows that (q →𝑝) ⇔ [(~ p) → (~ q)]. The conditionals that we considered in the previous
example are the different forms of conditional propositions.
Definition. Suppose these are propositions. From the conditional proposition p →𝑞, we
derive three other conditional statements, namely:
a. Converse: q →𝑝
b. Contrapositive: (~ q) → (~ p)
c. Inverse: (~ p) → (~ q)
Contrapositive ~ q) → (~ p): If the moon is not round, then 4 is not greater than 3.
(This Its contrapositive ~q → ~ p is true because ~q is false and ~ p is false.)
Note that a conditional and the corresponding contrapositive are logically equivalent.
Likewise, for a given conditional statement, its converse and inverse are logically equivalent.
We can also show that (p →𝑞) ⇔ [(~ q) → (~ p)] using logical equivalences in the following
manner
Reason
⇔ p →𝑞 Given
⇔ (~ p) ˅ 𝑞 Switcheroo
⇔ q ˅ (~ p) Commutative Law
⇔ ~ (~ q) ˅ (~ p) Double negation
⇔ (~ q) → (~ p) Switcheroo
Likewise, we can also show that that (q →𝑝) ⇔ [(~ p) → (~ q)]by means of logical
equivalences:
Reason
⇔ q →𝑝 Given
⇔ (~ q) ˅ 𝑝 Switcheroo
⇔ p ˅ (~ q) Commutative Law
⇔ ~ (~ p) ˅ (~ q) Double negation
⇔ (~ p) → (~ q) Switcheroo
The propositions p1, p2 ……pn are the premises of the argument and q is the
conclusion.
Arguments can be written in propositional form (p1 ∧ p2 ∧……pn) → q, or in column
or standard form
p1
p2_
∴ q
Solution:
The set of propositions is an argument. The first two propositions are the premises of the
argument, while the last proposition, marked by the word “therefore” is the conclusion of the
argument.
An argument is valid if all the premises are true, then the conclusion must be true. It is
impossible that all the premises are true and the conclusion is false. An argument is valid if
the conditional proposition (p1 ∧ p2 ∧…pn) → q is a tautology.
Example 4. Prove that the argument [(p → q) ∧ p ] → q is valid. This argument is known
as Modus Ponens (or Rule of Detachment)

Solution:
Let p: “Triangle and parallelogram are polygons.” and q: ” triangle is a parallelogram.” The
given argument is of the form
p ∧ q
Solution:
We show that [( p → q) ∧ q] → p is a fallacy using truth tables.

Since the last column are not all T’s ,the argument is invalid and is a fallacy.
Categorical Syllogisms is a deductive argument consisting of three categorical
propositions (two premises and a conclusion); collectively, these three propositions feature
exactly three classes; each of the three classes occurs in exactly two of the propositions. It is
presented in standard form begins with the major premise, followed by the minor premise,
and finally the conclusion. The logical form of a categorical syllogism is determined by two
features of the argument: its mood and its figure. The mood of a syllogism is determined by
the types of categorical propositions contained in the argument, and the order in which they
occur. To determine the mood, put the argument into standard form, and then simply list the
types of categorical:
The other aspect of logical form is the argument’s figure. There are four different
possibilities for standard form syllogisms. We will list them schematically, using these
conventions: let ‘S’ stand for the minor term, ‘P’ stands for the major term, and ‘M’ stands
for the middle term. Here are the four figures:
The middle term (M) is in subject position and the major term (P) is in predicate
position. Notice that for all four figures, the subject and predicate of the conclusion remains
the same: this is because, by definition, the minor term (S) is the subject of the conclusion
and the major term (P) its predicate.
Example 8:
All politicians are sociable people. (major premise)
All councilors are politicians. (minor premise)
Therefore, all councilors are sociable. (conclusion)
The major term is “sociable people”, the minor term is “councilors” and the middle term is
politicians “.
All M are P.
All S are M. AAA-1.
Therefore, All S are P.
All P are M.
Some S are not M. Therefore, A00-2
Some S are not P.
All P are M.
No M are S. Therefore, AEE-4
No S are P.
All P are M.
No S are M. Therefore, AEE-2
No S are P.
No M are P.
All S are M. EAE -1
Therefore, No S are P
No P are M.
All S are M. Therefore, EAE-2
No S are P.
All M are P.
Some S are M. Therefore, AII-1
Some S are P.
All M are P.
Some M are S. AII-3
Therefore, Some S are P.
Some M are P.
All M are S. Therefore, IAI-3
Some S are P.
Some P are M.
All M are S. Therefore, IAI-4
Some S are P.
No M are P.
Some S are M. Therefore, EIO-1
Some S are not P.
No P are M.
Some S are M. Therefore, EIO-2
Some S are not P.
No M are P.
Some M are S. EIO-3
Therefore, Some S are not P.
No P are M.
Some M are S. Therefore, EIO-4
Some S are not P.
Example 9.
(major premise) All politicians are sociable people. A
(minor premise) All councilors are politicians. A
(conclusion) Therefore, all councilors are sociable. A
The major premise, minor premise and the conclusion are universal affirmatives (A) using
the word “all”. The middle term (M) is “politicians”, the major term (P) is “sociable “ and the
minor term (S) is “councilors”. The arrangement “All M are P. All S are M. Therefore, All S
are P.” is a syllogistic form of AAA-1.
The syllogism is valid.
Example 10
(major premise ) Some rocks are in the water. I
(minor premise ) Some corals are rocks. I
(conclusion) Therefore, some corals are in the water. I
The major premise, minor premise and the conclusion are particular affirmatives (A) using
the word “some”. The middle term (M) is “rocks”, the major term (P) is “in the water “ and
the minor term (S) is “corals”. The arrangement “ Some M are P. Some S are M. Therefore,
Some S are P.” is a syllogistic form of III-1.
The syllogism is valid.
Example 11. Use the Venn Diagram to determine the given syllogism is valid.
No philosophers are logical.
Some mathematicians are logical.
Some mathematicians are not logical.
( Mathematicians) ( logical)
( Philosophers )
The middle term (M) is philosophers, the major term (P) is logical and the minor(S) term
is mathematicians. Refer to the table of validity of categorical syllogism EIO-1, “No P are
M. Some S are M. Therefore, Some S are not P.” The syllogism is valid.
