Lesson 1 - SIMPLE INTEREST
Math of Investment
Lesson Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students must be able to:
• define the simple interest;
• illustrate simple interest;
• compute interest, maturity value and to be able to identify
partial payments in simple interest environment; and
• solve problems involving simple interest.
To pay for her tuition, Angel’s parents
borrowed ₱10,000 from a loaning business
which credits 3% interest per year. At the end of
one year, how much must Angel’s parent’s pay to
the loaning business?
Simple Interest
- an amount paid for the lender for the use of his or
her money
Formula: I = Prt
Where:
P = is the principal
r = annual simple interest rate
t = time in years
Example 1.
In order to buy a new gadget, Maria decided to borrow ₱5,000
at an annual simple interest rate of 5%. After 2 years, how much
interest does she need to pay?
Example 1.1
1. A = P + I
2. A = P + Prt
3 . A = P (1 +rt)
Future /Maturity /Accumulated Value (A)
Where:
A = Maturity or Future Value
P = Principal Amount
I = Interest r = interest rate
t = time in year
Example 1.3
Givens:
P = ₱1000 r = 3%
I = 450
A = ₱1,450
t = ?
𝑰
I=Prt 𝑷=
𝒓𝒕
1. A = P + I
1. P=A-I
2. A = P + Prt
2.
3 . A = P (1 +rt)
Example 1.4
To buy the school supplies for the coming school year, you get
a summer job at a resort. Suppose you save ₱4 200.00 of your salary
and deposit it into an account that earns simple interest. After 9
months, the balance is ₱4 263.00. What is the annual interest rate?
P = ₱4,200
A = ₱4,263 ₱63 I = 𝑰
𝒓=
____; 𝑷𝒕
t = 9mos. r=?
= 0.75 yrs
Solution 1
Use the formula where P= ₱4 200.00,
I
r
Pt 9 3
t = 9 months or 12
or 4
year and,
r = ____63____=0.02 or 2%
4200 3
4 The annual interest rate is 2%
Solution 2 to Sample 1
Use the formula A = P(1 + rt) where A = ₱4 263.00, P = ₱4
200.00, and t = 3/4 year or 0.75 yr. Solve for r after
substituting values for A, P, and t.
4 263 = 4 200
4 263 = 4 200 + 3,150r
63 = 3,150r
0.02 = r
The annual interest rate is 2%
Ordinary Interest or Banker's Interest
– interest based on a 360-day
year.
You get a 180-day ₱200 000.00 loan from a bank at a 10.5% interest.
b. 365-day year:
I = Prt ; t = 0.49
= (200 000)(0.105)(0.49) = ₱10 356.16
