COMPOUND amount to P1,346 if invested at 6% INTEREST compounded quarterly. EXAMPLE 2
• Compute the future amount of
COMPOUND P5,000 for 10 years at 8% INTEREST compounded annually, semi- annually, quarterly, and monthly EXAMPLE 3
• How long will it take for an
COMPOUND investment to double its amount if INTEREST invested at an interest rate of 6% compounded bi-monthly? EXAMPLE 4
• Mr. Adam deposited P120,000 in a
COMPOUND bank who offers 8% interest INTEREST compounded quarterly. If the interest is subject to a 14% tax, how much will he receive after 5 years? EXAMPLE 5
• A man lends P6,000 at 6% simple interest
COMPOUND for 4 years. At the end of this time he
invests the entire amount (principal plus INTEREST interest) at 5% compounded annually for 12 years. How much will he have at the end of the 16-year period. EXAMPLE 6 • Which will you choose to invest in COMPOUND to gain the most interest? Prove your answer by mathematical solution INTEREST a. 5% compounding annually. b. 5% compounding monthly. c. 5% compounding quarterly. EXAMPLE 7 • On his 6th birthday, a boy is left with an inheritance invested on that same day. The COMPOUND inheritance will be given in a lump sum of INTEREST P50,000 on his 21st birthday. What is the present value of the inheritance as of the boy’s 6th birthday, if the interest is 8% compounded semi-annually? EXAMPLE 8 • Mrs. Ledesma invested P20,000 in an account earning 4% compounding quarterly. COMPOUND She withdraws half of the accumulated INTEREST value after 10 years, a quarter of which is subjected to a 25% tax. What is her net withdrawal on the 10th year and what will be future worth of the remaining investment 6 years thereafter?
