Principal – The initial balance of the savings account. Interest – Money earned on a savings account or a loan.
Example: The amount of interest on 10% of the principal of $1000 is 10% × $1000 = 0.10 × $1000 = $100
Simple Interest The method of paying interest only on the initial balance in an
account, not on any accrued interest. Example: The following shows the simple interest of a savings account
with a principal of $1000 and a 10% interest rate: End of first year, you receive $100 interest. The account total at the start of the second year is $1100. End of second year, you receive again only $100, which is the
interest from the original balance of $1000. Account total at the beginning of the third year is $1200. At the end of each year you receive just $100 in interest.

Bonds An obligation to repay a specified
amount of money at the end of a fixed term, with simple interest usually paid annually.
Interest Rate Formula: I = Prt The total amount accumulated:
A = P(1 + rt )

A = P (1 + rt )
Arithmetic Growth – (linear growth) A = P (1 + rt )
Example: Say you bought a 10-year T-note (U.S. Treasure note) today. What would be the total amount accumulated in 10 years at 4.0% simple interest?Answer:
P = $10,000, r = 4.0% = 0.40, and t = 10 yrs. Interest, I = Prt = (10,000)(0.04)(10) = $4000 Total A= P(1 + rt ) = 10,000(1 + (0.04)(10))
= 10,000(1.40) = $14,000

Geometric Growth Geometric growth is the growth proportional to the amount present
(also called exponential growth). Compound Interest
Interest paid on both the principal and on the accumulated interest.
Compound Interest Formula –
A = P (1 + i ) nt
Where: A = Amount earned after
interest is madeP = Principal amount i = Interest rate per
compounding period, which is computed as i = r /n
n = Number of compounding periods
t = Time of the loan in years
Rate per Compounding Period – For a nominal annual rate of interest r compounded n times per year, the rate per compounding period is:
i = r / n

Compounding Period The amount of time elapsing before interest is paid.
For the examples below (annual, quarterly, and monthly compounding), the amount earned increases when interest is paid more frequently.
Example: Suppose the initial balance is $1000 (P = $1000) and the interest rate is 10% (r = 0.10). What is the amount earned in 10 years (t = 10) for the following compounding periods, n?
To answer this problem you need to use the following equations:Rate per compounding period, i = r / nCompound Interest Formula, A = P (1 + i ) nt
Annual compounding: i = 0.10, and nt = (1)10 yearsA = $1000(1 + 0.10) 10 = $1000(1.10) 10 = $2593.74
Quarterly compounding: i = 0.10/4 = 0.025, and nt = (4)(10) = 40 quartersA = $1000(1 + 0.025) 40 = $1000(1.025) 40 = $2685.06
Monthly compounding: i = 0.10/12 = 0.008333, and nt = (12)(10) = 120mo.A = $1000(1 + 0.10/12) 120 = $2707.04

The equation is obtained by manipulating the formula for finding the amount to be paid in the future after compound interest is earned.
With the compound interest formula A = P (1 + i )nt , we can solve for the present value, P.
Present Value Formula –
P = Where: P = Present value (principal
amount) A = Amount to be paid in the future
after compounding interest is earned
i = Interest rate per compounding period which is computed as i = r /n
n = Number of compounding periods in a year
t = The years of the loan
A (1 + i )nt
Present Value The present value P of an amount A to be paid in the future,
after earning compound interest for n compounding periods at rate i per period is the future amount paid, A divided by (1 + i)nt.

Effective Rate The effective rate of interest is:
effective rate where i=r/m and n=mt.
Annual Percentage Yield (APY) The amount of interest earned in 1 year with a principal of $1. The annual effective rate of interest.

Compound Interest Compared to Simple Interest The graph compares the
growth of $1000 with compound interest and with simple interest.
The straight line explains why growth simple interest is also known as linear growth.
Example of geometric and arithmetic growth: Thomas Robert Malthus (1766–1843), an English demographer and economist, claimed that human population grows geometrically but food supplies grow arithmetically—which he attributed to future problems.
Chapter 21: Savings Models A Limit to Compounding

A Limit to Compound Interest The following table shows a trend: More frequent compounding
yields more interest. As the frequency of compounding increases, the interest tends
to reach a limiting amount (shown in the right columns).

Continuous Compounding
As n gets very large, (1+ 1/n)n approaches the constant e ≈ 2.71828.
For a principal P deposited in an account at a nominal annual rate r, compounded continuously, the balance after t years is:
A = P e r t
Example: For $1000 at an annual rate of 10%, compounded n times in the course of a single year, what is the balance at the end of the year? As the quantity gets closer and closer to
$1000( e 0.1) = $1105.17. No matter how frequently interest is
compounded, the original $1000 at the end of one year cannot grow beyond $1105.17.

A Savings Plan To have a specified amount of money in an account at a particular
time in the future, you need to determine what size deposit you need to make regularly into an account with a fixed rate of interest.
Savings Formula
Where: A = Amount accumulated in the
future after compounding interest is earned
d = Uniform deposits (or payments made)
i = Interest rate per compounding period which is computed as i = r /m
n = Number of compounding, n=mt t = The years of the savings plan
(or loan)
Savings FormulaThe amount A accumulated after a certain period of time can be calculated by stating a uniform deposit of d per compounding period (deposited at the end of the period) and using a certain interest rate i per compounding period.

Payment Formula: Solving for d in the Savings Formula so we can calculate how
much our periodic payment should be in order to have $A in the future yields:

An annuity is a specified number of (usually equal) periodic payments.
A sinking fund is a savings plan to accumulate a fixed sum by a particular date, usually through equal periodic payments.

Exponential Decay Exponential decay is geometric growth with a negative rate of
growth. Present Value of a Dollar a Year from Now with Inflation Rate a.
Example: Suppose a 25% annual inflation rate from mid-2009 through mid-2013. What will be the value of a dollar in mid-2013 in constant mid-2009 dollars?
Answer: a=0.25, so i=-a/(1+a)=-0.25/(1+.25)=-0.25/1.25=-0.20 and

Depreciation Example
Suppose you bought a car at the beginning of 2009 for $12,000 and its value in current dollars depreciates steadily at a rate of 15% per year. What will be its value at the beginning of 2012 in current dollars?
Answer: Using the compound interest formula, P = $12,000, i = −0.15, and n = 3. The projected price is A = P (1 + r)n = $12,000 (1 - 0.15)3 = $7369.50

Consumer Price Index The official measure of inflation is the Consumer Price Index
(CPI), prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This index represents all urban consumers (CPI-U) and covers about
80% of the U.S. population. This is the index of inflation that is referred to on television news
broadcasts, in newspapers, and magazine articles. Each month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics determines the average
cost of a “market basket” of goods, including food, housing, transportation, clothing, and other items.
The base period used to construct the CPI-U is from 1982–1984 and is set to 100. CPI for other year cost of market basket in other year
100 cost of market basket in base year From this proportion calculation, you can also compute the cost of an
item in dollars for one year to what it would cost in dollars in a different year. cost in year A CPI for year A
cost in year B CPI for year B

Real Growth If your investments are growing at say 6% a year and inflation is
growing at 3% a year, you cannot simply subtract the two to find the purchasing power of your investments. It’s not that simple.
Where P is the initial investment principle and m is the price of goods.
The investment rate is r and the inflation is a.qnew =
Here, you see the two influences on the investment (investment growth rate r and inflation a) have directly opposite effects.
Fisher’s effect – Named after the economist Irving Fisher (1867–1947). To understand why you cannot simply find the difference between interest and inflation, you must realize that the gain itself is not in original dollars but in deflated dollars.
At the beginning of the year, your investment would buy the quantity:
qold = P/m
At the end of the year, the investment would be: P(1 + r )
m(1 + a)
Chapter 21: Savings Models Present Value and Inflation
Real Rate of Growth The real (effective) annual rate of growth of an investment at
annual interest rate r with annual inflation rate a is:
Example: Suppose you have an investment earning 8% per year and the annual inflation rate is 3% per year. What is your real rate of growth?
Answer: r=.008 and a=0.03, so
g=(0.08-0.03)/(1+0.03)=0.05/1.03=0.0485=4.85%
