Study Notes
Simple Interest Loan Calculations
- A P300 loan with 12% simple interest for 3 years will have a total amount of P396 due at the end of the term.
- The interest for the loan is P36, calculated by multiplying the principal amount (P300) by the interest rate (12%) and the number of years (3).
- Total amount due is the principal amount (Php300) plus the interest (Php36) for a total of Php396.
Effective Interest Rate Calculation
- An 80000 loan with a 14% interest rate results in an effective interest rate of 16.47%.
- The initial interest deduction of 11200 leaves the borrower with 68,800 usable funds.
- The 16.47% effective interest rate is calculated by dividing the total interest amount (11,200) by the usable funds (68,800).
Bank Discount Rate Calculation
- A bank loan of P500,000 with a discount of P50,000 results in a discount rate of 10%.
- The discount of P50000 is calculated by subtracting the amount received by the borrower (P450,000) from the original loan amount (P500,000).
- The discount rate is calculated by dividing the discount (P50,000) by the original loan amount (P500,000) and multiplying by 100.
Simple Interest Calculation with Specific Dates
- The exact simple interest earned on P5,500 for the period from January 10, 1996, to October 28, 1996, at an 11% interest rate is P186.14.
- The calculation is based on the actual number of days between the two dates.
- The simple interest is calculated by multiplying the principal (P5500), the interest rate (11%), and the fraction of the year represented by the period.
Acid Test Ratio
- The Acid Test Ratio for a company with P10,000 in cash, P12,000 in receivables, and P17,000 in current liabilities is 1.35.
- This ratio measures a company's ability to meet its short-term debt obligations.
- It is calculated by dividing the sum of cash and receivables by current liabilities.
Simple Interest Calculation for Specific Period
- A loan of P50,000 for 75 days at 16% per annum simple interest will have a total of P5208.33 due at the end of 75 days.
- The simple interest is calculated by multiplying the principal (P50,000), the interest rate (16%), and the fraction of the year represented by 75 days.
Production Time Calculation
- An assembly line producing 35 units per week with 7 hours of operation per day for 5 days needs a maximum production time of 1 hour to meet the demand. This means that the whole production process must be done in one hour to effectively meet the demand.
Portfolio Return Rate Calculation
- An investor with P40,000 to invest desires a return equal to Venture A (8%). They have allocated P40,000 to Venture A (8% return) and P10,000 to Venture B (15% return).
- To achieve an overall return rate of 8%, the remaining P30,000 must be invested to generate an 8% return.
Discounted Note Calculation
- A loan of P20,000 with 6% interest for 180 days, collected in advance, will have a proceeds of P19,400 on the note.
- The discount is calculated by multiplying the principal, the interest rate, and the fraction of the year represented by 180 days.
- This discount is then deducted from the principal to arrive at the proceeds.
Present Worth Calculation
- A refrigerator costing P13,000 in 90 days with a 12% simple interest rate has a present worth of P12,106.
- This calculation involves discounting the future value of the refrigerator back to its present worth.
- The calculation is based on the future price, the interest rate, and the time period.
