Study Notes

Simple Interest

Principal (P): The initial amount borrowed or invested. Also known as face value or present value.
Rate (r): The annual interest rate. Always convert the percentage to a decimal. (e.g., 8% = 0.08).
Time (t): The length of time the money is borrowed or invested. Usually measured in years.
- If time is in months, divide by 12 (e.g., 6 months = 6/12 = 0.5 years).
- If time is in days, use 360 days for ordinary interest, and 365 days for exact interest.
Interest (I): The amount paid or earned for using money. Depends on principal, rate, and time. Calculated by I = Prt
Maturity Value (A): The total amount to be paid or received at the end of the loan or investment period. It includes both principal and interest. Calculated by A = P + I or A = P(1 + rt).
Ordinary Interest: Based on a 360-day year, commonly used by banks.
- Time formula: t = days/360
Exact Interest: Based on a 365-day year.
- Time formula: t = days/365

Propositions and Logic

Proposition: A statement which can be either true or false.
Simple Proposition: A statement that expresses one clear idea without connecting words (e.g., "She is happy").
Compound Proposition: A statement composed of two or more simple propositions joined by connecting words (e.g., "It is raining, and I am going to the store").
Conjunction (AND): Both propositions must be true for the entire statement to be true. (Symbol: ^)
Disjunction (OR): At least one of the propositions must be true for the entire statement to be true. (Symbol: V)
Conditional (If...Then): If the first proposition (if-part) is true, then the second proposition (then-part) will also be true. (Symbol: →)
Biconditional (If and Only If): Both propositions must be either both true or both false for the entire statement to be true. (Symbol: ↔)
Negation (Not): A statement that denies, or says the opposite of the original statement. (Symbol: ~)
