1. Simple Interest You deposit Rs 1,000 with a bank, that offers to pay 10% simple interest per annum. What will be the total amount you will receive if you deposit the amount for (a) 1 Year (b) 2 Years (c) 3 Years (d) 10 Years (e) 25 Years. In addition to the total amount received show the principal and interest separately. Hint Step 1 Write down the principal amount (the amount initially deposited) Step 2 Calculate the interest amount Interest (Amount)=Principal*Interest Rate*Period [If the interest rate is annual, as in this example, the period should be in years to ensure consistency] Step 3 Total = Principal + Interest (a) 1 Year Principal Interest Total
(b) 2 Years Principal Interest Total
(c) 3 Years Principal Interest Total
(d) 10 Years Principal Interest Total
(e) 25 Years Principal Interest Total 2. Compound Interest

What will be the total amount you will receive if you deposit the amount for (a) 1 Year (b) 2 Years (c) 3 Years (d) 10 Years (e) 25 Years. In addition to the total amount received show the principal and interest separately. Hint Step 1 Write down the principal amount (the amount initially deposited) Step 2 Calculate the total amount Total=Principal*(1+Interest Rate)Period Step 3 Interest (Amount) =Total- Principal (a) 1 Year Principal Interest Total Hint Total=Principal*(1+Interest Rate) (b) 2 Years Principal Interest Total Hint Total=Principal*(1+Interest Rate)2 = Principal*(1+Interest Rate)*(1+Interest Rate) (c) 3 Years Principal Interest Total Hint Total = Principal*(1+Interest Rate)3 = Principal*(1+Interest Rate)*(1+Interest Rate)*(1+Interest Rate)

A bank offers you a loan with a stated annual interest rate of 10% per annum. What is the effective annual interest rate with (a) Annual rest (b) Semi-annual rests (c) Quarterly rests (d) Monthly rests. Semi-annual rests mean that interest will be applied at 5% (10%/2) every six months, the compounding period being six months. Quarterly rests mean that interest will be applied at 2.5% (10%/4) every three months, the compounding period being three months. Hint Effective Annual Interest Rate =(1+Stated Annual Interest Rate/No. of Intervals)No. of Intervals - 1 For example with semi-annual compounding the number of intervals in a year is 2.
