Study Notes
Compound Interest
- Compound interest is interest calculated on both the principal amount and the accumulated interest from previous periods.
- The principal amount is the initial amount of investment or loan.
- Compounding involves adding the interest to the principal, so that the added interest also earns interest.
Objectives
- Illustrate compound interest.
- Calculate interest and present value in compound interest scenarios.
- Solve word problems involving compound interest.
Terms Related to Compound Interest
- Conversion Period: The time interval between successive interest calculations.
- Compounding Period: The time interval between succeeding interest calculations.
- Interval Period: The same as the conversion period.
- Compound Frequency: The number of compounding periods in a year.
- Conversion Frequency: The same as compound frequency.
- Nominal Interest: The annual interest rate used in the compound interest calculation.
- Periodic Interest Rate: Interest earned during one conversion period.
Compounding Frequencies and Periods
| Compounding or Conversion Frequency | Number of Compounding or Conversions per Year |
|---|---|
| Annually | 1 |
| Semi-annually | 2 |
| Quarterly | 4 |
| Bimonthly | 6 |
| Monthly | 12 |
Formula for Maturity Value (MV)
-
MV = PV (1 + i)n
-
Where:
- MV = Maturity Value
- PV = Present Value (Principal)
- i = Interest rate per conversion period
- n = Total number of conversion periods
- j = Nominal interest rate per year
- m = Number of conversion periods per year
- t = Term (number of years)
-
i = j / m
-
n = mt
Formula for Present Value (PV)
- PV = MV / (1 + i)n
