F = 10 ( 1 + 0.06 )² = P11.236
F = 10 ( 1 + 0.1236 ) = P11.236
P (1 + i ) = P (1 + j / m) m
(1 + i ) = (1 + j / m) m
i = (1 + j / m) m - 1
Interest rate is used for I, that is (1.01)3 – 1 = 3.03%, then the n time unit I 4 quarters,
Alternatively , it is always correct to determine the effective i per payment period.
Sample problems:
1.
Given:
P = P 2000
j = 11% compounded quarterly
t = 5 years
m=4
n=mxt
Required:
F=?
Solution:
F= P (1 + j / m )n
= 2000(1 + 0.11/4) 20
= P 3440.87
2.
Given:
F = P 5000
j = 12% compounded semi-annually
t = 8 years
m=2
n=mxt
Required:
P=?
Solution:
F= P (1 + j / m )n
P = F/(1 + j/m) n
P = 5000/(1 + 0.12/2) 2 x 8
P = P 1968.23
3.
Given:
P = P 2000
j = 11% compounded quarterly
t = 5 years
m=4
n=mxt
Required:
F=?
Solution:
F= P (1 + j / m )n
= 2000(1 + 0.11/4) 20
= P 3440.87
4.
Given:
j = 12%
m=2
Required:
Er = ?
Solution:
Er = (1 + j / m )m – 1
= (1 + 0.12/ 2 ) 2 – 1
= 0.1236 or 12.36%
25.
A student deposits P 1,500 in a 9% account today. He intends to deposit
another P 3,000 at the end of two years. He plans to purchase in five years his
favorite shoes worth P 5,000. Calculate the money that will be left in his account
one year after the purchase.
Given:
P = 1,500
j=9%
n1 = 2 years, n2 = 3 years, n3 = 1years
Solution:
a. F = P( 1 + i ) n1
= 1,500 ( 1 + 0.009) 2
= 1,782.15
= P 4,782.15
b. F = P( 1 + i ) n2
= 4,782.15 ( 1 + 0.009) 3
= P 1,193.02
c. F = P( 1 + i ) n3
= 1,193.02 ( 1 + 0.009) 1
