From Kenneth: Hello:
Is compound interest on $1.00 for one year the same as simple interest on
$1.00 for one year?
Compound interest would be $1.01, and I believe the same amount would be
the same at simple interest. Answered by Penny Nom. |

From Kenneth: Hello:
I have a question regarding the following compound interest and future value
calculation.
Year 1 P + rP equals balance after the first year.
Year 2 (P + rP) + r(P + rP) equals balance after the second year.
Year 3 ? equals balance after the third year.
This question is in two parts.
1. What would follow for year three?
2. I know that a pattern will develop. What will it be so that I can determine
the extended pattern for following years ? Answered by Penny Nom. |

From Kenneth: Let's say that an investor has $1000.00 to invest for 3 years at a rate of 5% at
compound interest. Here is the formula:
M = 1000(1 + 0.05)^3 = $1157.62
If I want to change 1000(1 + 0.05) to (1000 + 0.05*1000) three times in a
calculation instead of using (1 +0.05)^3, how would this be done?
I cannot get (1000 + 0.05*1000) + (1000 + 0.05*1000) + (1000 + 0.05*1000) to
equal $1157.62.
I know that 1000(1.05)(1.05(1.05) will produce the answer, but I want to try to
use the above non-factored calculation. Answered by Penny Nom. |
