Understanding Interest
Albert Einstein is reported to have once said, “the most powerful force in the universe is compound interest.” Whether Einstein actually said this or not, it’s a great financial principle to live by. Without attention, compound interest can rapidly become a force of ill intent and create financial burdens we never planned on. Compound interest can also become the means to our financial dreams through a prudent investment.

Simple Interest Formula
Simple Interest Formula The amount of interest on a simple interest loan with principal P, annual interest rate r (written as a decimal), and loan term of t (usually in years) is calculated with the following formula.
I = Prt

Example 1: Calculating Simple Interest
Determine the interest that is accrued on $5500 for five years at a rate of 8.5%. Solution We have that the principal is P = $5500 and the interest rate is 8.5%. Note that we need to change the interest rate to a decimal before substituting it in the formula, so r = 0.85. We also have that t = 5. Using our formula, we can determine the amount of interest owed on the $5500 as follows.

Example 1: Calculating Simple Interest (cont.)
So, if we borrowed $5500 at the given rate of 8.5% for five years, we would owe $2337.50 in interest along with the original principal of $5500 for a total purchase of $7837.50.

Example 2: Calculating Simple Interest on Purchases
Ian is purchasing a new television with a “deal” from Big Screens R Us. The deal offers 90 days same-as-cash to make the purchase. This means that at the end of 90 days, if Ian has paid off the cost of the television, he owes no interest charge. However, if Ian does not pay off the amount, he owes simple interest for the original purchase amount calculated over the entire 90 days. If the price of the television is $2650 (tax included) with an annual interest rate of 21.99%, how much would Ian owe on the 91st day if he made no payments during the first 90 days?

Example 2: Calculating Simple Interest on Purchases (cont.)
Solution First, we want to determine the entire amount due after the 90 days has expired assuming that Ian has not paid any money toward the amount he owes. This means the principal of $2650 is still due in addition to the amount of interest that accumulated over the 3 months that he borrowed the money. Since the formula for simple interest requires that time t must be given in years, we need to convert three months into a fraction of a year; that is, of a year. 3 1

Example 2: Calculating Simple Interest on Purchases (cont.)
Remember that when using the formula, we need the interest rate to be in decimal form. Therefore, we have that P = 2650, r = 0.2199, and The amount of interest gained over three months can then be calculated as follows.

Example 2: Calculating Simple Interest on Purchases (cont.)
So, the amount of interest due at the end of 90 days would be $145.68. Therefore, the total amount Ian must pay for the television on the 91st day is the sum of the principal and the interest.
$2650 + $145.68 = $2795.68

Compound Interest
Compound Interest Compound interest is interest that is computed based on both the principal and the accrued interest as additional principal at each interval. The future value is the total amount of money A that has been accrued after compounding at an annual percentage rate r based on the initial principal P with n compounding intervals per year for t years.

Example 3: Computing Compound Interest
Lilly deposits $12,000 into an account with an annual interest rate of 4.5% compounded monthly. If she leaves the money in the account for 10 years, what will the future value be at the end of this time period? Solution We can use the compound interest formula to compute the future value for Lilly after 10 years. In her case, P = 12,000, r = 0.045, and t = 10. Since interest is compounded monthly, n = 12. So we have the following.

Example 4: Comparing Compound Interest for Different Compounding Intervals
Thomas uses $4500 to open an IRA (Individual Retirement Account) savings account that earns 3.8% APR. If he leaves the money alone, what is the future value after eight years for the following compounding intervals? a. The interest is compounded yearly. b. The interest is compounded quarterly. c. The interest is compounded weekly.

Example 4: Comparing Compound Interest for Different Compounding Intervals (cont.)
Solution a. We have that Thomas’ principal is P = 4500. The
interest rate is r = 0.038 and time is t = 8. If the interest is compounded yearly, then n = 1. Therefore, we have
So, if the interest is compounded yearly, Thomas will have approximately $6064.45 at the end of eight years.

Example 4: Comparing Compound Interest for Different Compounding Intervals (cont.)
b. This time interest will be compounded quarterly. In other words, n = 4. We still have that P = 4500, r = 0.038, and t = 8. Substituting these into the compound interest formula, we have
This means that Thomas will have $6089.97 after eight years if the interest is compounded quarterly.

So, after eight years, Thomas’ investment has a future value of $6098.03 with interest compounded weekly.

Example 4: Comparing Compound Interest for Different Compounding Intervals (cont.)
You might notice that the more compounding intervals that occur in a given year, the larger the total accumulated amount of money. The other factor that has an impact on the accumulated amount is time. The longer an amount is invested, the larger the accumulated amount. Making sound financial decisions requires that we also understand the power of compounding interest over a long period of time.

Example 5: Calculating Continuous Compound Interest
Find the future value of $8900 invested at a rate of 2.05% that is compounded continuously over 15 years. Solution We know that P = 8900, t = 15, and r = 0.0205. Using the continuous compound interest formula, we have
So, the future value is $12,104.19 when interest is compounded continuously.

Example 6: Finding the Maximum Amount of Interest Possible in One Year (cont.)
Solution a. Because we want to know the maximum future
value, we need to use the continuous compound interest formula. We are given that the principal is P = 2500, r = 0.06, and t = 10. Substituting the given values into the formula we have the following.
Therefore, the largest possible future value of $2500 invested at 6% over 10 years is $4555.30.

Example 6: Finding the Maximum Amount of Interest Possible in One Year (cont.)
b. We can find the largest amount of interest the principal can earn over the 10-year period by subtracting the principal amount from the future value as shown below.
So, the principal can earn at most $2055.30 in interest over the 10 years.

Annual Percentage Yield (APY)
Annual Percentage Yield (APY) The annual percentage yield (APY) is the effective annual interest rate earned in a given year that accounts for the effects of compounding. APY is calculated with the formula
where r is the annual percentage rate and n is the number of compounding intervals per year.

interest is compounded monthly. b. Find the APY if the interest is compounded daily on
Samantha’s investment.Solution a. Notice, that to determine the APY, we only need the
rate of interest and the number of compound intervals per year.

Example 7: Annual Percentage Yield (cont.)
The amount of the principal plays no role in finding the APY. So, we need r = 0.05 and n = 12 for monthly compounding intervals.
This means with monthly compounding, the APY for Samantha’s investment is 5.116%.

Example 9: Calculating Interest on Payday Loans
Assume you wish to borrow $300 for two weeks in the form of a payday loan and the amount of interest you must pay is $25 per $100 borrowed. This means that at the end of two weeks, you owe $375. What is the APR? Solution Recall that APR is defined as the interest rate over a year. Since the loan was for two weeks, we need to convert this to a yearly rate. We can find the APR by using

Example 9: Calculating Interest on Payday Loans (cont.)
Thus, the APR is 650%. That is a ridiculous rate of interest for one year. Although this rate is never paid because the loans are for a very short amount of time, the APR is the reason these types of loans have become illegal in many states.
