5. SIMPLE INTEREST
• Interest (I): Interest

• PRINCIPAL(P): the amount of
money invested or borrowed
1
• RATE (R): rate in % per annum
• TIME: in years 4
6. A sum of $5000 is borrowed for 4 years
Example 1: at 2% per annum. Find the simple interest
and the amount to be paid back.

= $400
Amount to be paid back = 5000 + 400 = $5400

8. Compound Interest
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
• Interest earned after one period is added to

the principal to earn more interest for the
next period

9. Example 3: Find the compound interest on $5000 for
2 years at 4% per annum compounded
Solution:
annually.
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Interest in the first year = 5000 × 4 × 1

= $208
Compound Interest = 5200 + 208 = $5408
