2 11.1 The Simple Interest Formula

Find simple interest by using the simple interest formula.Find the maturity of a loan.Convert
months to a fractional or decimal part of the year.Find the principal, rate or time using the
simple interest formula.
3 Key Terms Interest: an amount paid or earned for the use of money.
Simple interest: interest earned when a loan or investment is repaid in a lump sum.Principal:
the amount of money borrowed or invested.Rate: the percent of the principal paid as interest
per time period.Time: the number of days, months or years that the money is borrowed or
invested.
4 11.1.1 The Simple Interest Formula

The interest formula shows how interest, rate, and time are related and gives us a way of
finding one of these values if the other three values are known.I = P x R x T
5 Find the simple interest using the simple interest formula
6 Identify the principal, rate and time.

P= R x BThe interest is a percentage.Principal is the amount borrowed or invested.Rate of
interest is a percent for a given time period, usually one year.Time must be expressed in the
same unit of time as the rate. (i.e. one year)
7 Find the interest paid on a loan.

Principal = (P) $1,500.Interest rate = 9% (or 0.09)Time = 1 yearInterest = P x R x TInterest = 1,500
x 0.09 x 1Interest = $135The interest on the loan is $135.
8 Try these examples.Find the interest on a 2-year loan of $4,000 at a 6% rate.$480Find the
interest earned on a 3-year investment of $5,000 at 4.5% interest.$675
9 11.1.2 Find the maturity value of a loan.

Maturity value: the total amount of money due by the end of a loan period; the amount of the
loan and interest.If the principal and the interest are known, add them.MV = principal + PRTMV
= P(1+RT)
10 Look at this example. (See next slide)

Marcus Logan can purchase furniture on a 2-year simple interest loan at 9% interest per
year.What is the maturity value for a $2,500 loan?MV = P (1 + RT) Substitute known values.MV =
$2,500 ( x 2)(See next slide)
11 What is the maturity value?

MV = $2,500 ( x 2)MV = $2,500 ( )MV = $2,500 (1.18)MV = $2,950Marcus will pay $2,950 at the
end of two years.
12 Try these examples.Terry Williams is going to borrow $4,000 at 7.5% interest. What is the
maturity value of the loan after three years?$4,900Jim Sherman will invest $3,000 at 8% for 5
years. What is the maturity value of the investment?$4,200
13 11.1.3 Convert months to a fractional or decimal part of a year.

Write the number of months as the numerator of a fraction.Write 12 as the denominator of the
fraction.Reduce the fraction to lowest terms if using the fractional equivalent.Divide the
numerator by the denominator to get the decimal equivalent of the fraction.
14 Convert the following to fractional or decimal part of a year.

Convert 9 months and 15 months, respectively, to years, expressing both as fractions and
decimals.9/12 = ¾ = 0.759 months = ¾ or 0.75 of a year15/12 = 1 3/12 = 1 ¼ = 1.2515 months =
1 ¼ or 1.25 of a year.
15 Look at this example.To save money, Stan Wright invested $2,500 for 45 months at 3 ½ %
simple interest. How much interest did he earn?45 months = 45/12 = 3.75I = P x R x TI = $2,500
x x 3.75I = $328.13Stan will earn $328.13
16 Try these examples.Akiko is saving a little extra money to pay for her car insurance next
year. If she invests $1,000 for 18 months at 4%, how much interest can she earn?$60Habib is
going to borrow $2,000 for 42 months at 7% . What will the amount of interest owed be?$490
17 11.1.4 Find the principal, rate or time using the simple interest formula.
18 Find the principal using the simple interest formula.

P = I / RTJudy paid $108 in interest on a loan that she had for 6 months. The interest rate was
12%. How much was the principal?Substitute the known values and solve.P = 108/ 0.12 x 0.5P =
$1,800
19 Find the rate using the simple interest formula.

R = I / PTSam wants to borrow $1,500 for 15 months and will have to pay $225 in interest. What
is the rate he is being charged?Substitute the known values and solve.R = 225/ $1,500 x 1.25R
= .12 or 12%The rate Sam will pay is 12%.
20 Find the time using the simple interest formula.

T = I / RPShelby borrowed $10,000 at 8% and paid $1,600 in interest. What was the length of the
loan?Substitute the known values and solve.T = $1,600/0.08 x $10,000T = 2The length of the
loan was two years.
21 11.2 Ordinary and Exact Time and Interest

Find ordinary and exact time.Find the due date.Find the interest using the ordinary and exact
interest rates.Find simple interest using a table.
22 11.2.1 Find ordinary and exact time.

Ordinary time: time that is based on counting 30 days in each month.Exact time: time that is
based on counting the exact number of days in a time period.
23 Examples The ordinary time from July 12 to September 12 is 60 days.

To find the exact time from July 12 to September 12, add the following:Days in July ( =) 19Days
in AugustDays in September +1262 days
24 Sequential Numbers for Dates of the Year

Find the exact time of a loan using the sequential numbers table. (Table 11-1 in the text)If the
beginning and due dates of the loan fall within the same year, subtract the beginning date’s
sequential number from the due date’s sequential number.Ex.: From May 15 to October 15=
153 days is the exact time.
25 Beginning and due dates in different years.

Subtract the beginning date’s sequential number from 365.Add the due date’s sequential
number to the result from the previous step.If February 29 falls between the two dates, add 1.
(Is it a leap year?)
26 Look at this example.Find the exact time from May 15 on Year 1 to March 15 in Year 2.365 –
135 = 230= 304 daysThe exact time is 304 days.Note: If Year 2 is a leap year, the exact time is
305 days.
27 Try this example.A loan made on September 5 is due July 5 of the following year.Find: a)
ordinary time b) exact time in a non-leap year c) exact time in a leap year.Ordinary time = 300
daysExact time (non-leap year) = 303 daysExact time (leap year) = 304 days
28 11.2.3 Find the ordinary interest rate per day and the exact interest rate per day.
Ordinary interest: a rate per day that assumes 360 days per year.Exact interest: a rate per day
that assumes 365 days per year.Banker’s rule: calculating interest on a loan based on ordinary
interest and exact time which yields a slightly higher amount of interest.
29 Find the ordinary interest per day.

For ordinary interest rate per day, divide the annual interest rate by 360.Ordinary interest rate
per day =Interest rate per year 360
30 Find the exact interest per day.
For exact interest rate per day, divide the annual interest rate by 365.Exact interest rate per day
=Interest rate per year 365
31 Use ordinary time to find the ordinary interest on a loan.

A loan of $500 at 7% annual interest rate. The loan was made on March 15 and due on May 15.
(Principal = $500) I = P x R x TLength of loan (ordinary time) = 60 daysRate = 0.07/360 (ordinary
interest)Interest = $500 x 0.07/360 x 60Interest = $5.83
32 Find the ordinary interest using exact time for the previous loan.
(Principal = $500) I = P x R x TLength of loan (exact time) = 61 daysRate = 0.07/360 (ordinary
33 Find the exact interest using exact time for the previous loan.
(Principal = $500) I = P x R x TLength of loan (exact time) = 61 daysRate = 0.07/365 (exact
34 11.2.4 Find simple interest using a table.

1. Identify the amount of money that the table uses as the principal. (Usually $1, $100 or
$1000)2. Divide the loan principal by the table principal.3. Select the days row corresponding to
the time period (in days) of the loan.(continue on next slide)
35 Find simple interest using a table.

4. Select the annual rate column corresponding to the annual interest rate of the loan.5. Locate
the value in the cell where the two intersect.6. Multiply the quotient from step 2 by the value
from step 5.
36 Look at this example.Find the exact interest on a loan of $6,500 at 7.5% annually for 45
days.Use Table 11-2 in your text to locate the interest for $100. Move across the 45-days row to
the 7.5% column.The number isDivide $6,500 by $100 ( = 65)Multiply x 65 = $860.11The exact
interest is $860.11
37 Try these examples.Find the exact interest on a $5,000 loan for 30 days at 8%.$32.88Find
the exact interest on a $1,800 loan for 20 days at 8.5%.$8.38
38 11.3.1 Find the bank discount and proceeds for a simple discount note.
For the bank discount, use: Bank discount = face value x disc. rate x time [I = P x R x T]For the
proceeds, use: Proceeds = face value – bank discount A = P - I
39 A promissory note
40 11.3.2 Find the third party discount and proceeds for a third party discount note.
For the bank discount, use: Third party discount = maturity value of the original note x discount
rate x discount period.For the proceeds, use: Proceeds = maturity value of original note – third-
party discount A = P - I
41 Look at this example.Mihoc Trailer Sales made a note of $10,000 with Darcy Mihoc,owner,
at 9% simple interest based on exact interest and exact time. The note is made on August 12
and due November 10. Since Mihoc Trailer Sales needs cash, the note is taken to a third party
on September 5.The third-party agrees to accept the note with a 13% annual discount using the
banker’s rule.Find the proceeds of the note.
42 Mihoc Trailer SalesTo find the proceeds, we find the maturity value of the original note,
then the third-party discount.Exact time is 90 days ( )Exact interest rate is .09/365MV = P(1+
RT)MV = $10,000 ( /365 x 90)MV = $
43 Find the proceeds of the note.

Exact time of the discount period is 66 days. ( ) period between Sept. 5 and Nov. 10.Ordinary
discount rate is 0.13/ 360.Third party discount = I = PRTThird party discount = $10, ( 0.13/360)
(66)Third party discount = $243.62Proceeds = A = P – IProceeds = $10, $ = $9,978.30
