CHAPTER 1. Special Topics in Algebra/Number Patterns

1.1. Mathematical Induction

Suppose there is a claim that

n
∑ i = 1+2+3+4+5+…+n = n (n+1) for n = 1, 2, 3, …
i=1 2

To verify whether the sum is indeed true, we check for

n = 1, 2, 3, … k, (k+4)

Hence, for n = 1
1
∑ i = 1 (1+1) 1=(2) =1
i=1 2 2

for n = 2
2
∑ i = 2 (2+1) 2=(3) = 3 = 1+2
i=1 2 2

for n = 3
3
∑ i = 3 (3+1) 3=(4) = 6 = 1+2+3
i=1 2 2

By applying the same process

for n = k
k
∑ i = k (k+1)
n=1 2

for n = k + 1
k+1
∑ i = (k+1) (k+1+1) (k+1) (k+2)
=
i=1 2 2

Page
We would like to show that the last statement is true. And according to the basic definition

of summation

k+i
∑ i = 1+2+3+4+5+…+k + (k + 1)
i=1
k
= ∑ i + (k+1)
i=1

k
but ∑ i = k (k+1)
i=1 2

k+i
∑ i = k (k+1) + k+1
i=1 2

=k (k+1) + 2 (k+1) (k+1)


= (k+2)
2 2

The principle that we used here consisted of two steps. First, we verified that the

claim is true by assigning a value to n to the summation (eg. n=1, 2, 3 …). Second, we assumed

that for n=k, the summation is true and then proved that for n=k+1, the summation still holds

true. This is the process of the mathematical induction.

Inductive reasoning utilizes the truthfulness or the fallacy of a statement from the

specific (we used n=1) to the generalization (we used n=k+1).

1.3. Arithmetic Sequence11

Definition of an Arithmetic Sequence

A sequence is called arithmetic if the differences between consecutive terms

are the same. Thus, the sequence a1, a2, a3, a4, . . . , an, . . . is arithmetic if there is a number d

such that, a2 – a1 = d, a3 – a2 = d, a4 – a3 = d, and so on. The number d is called the common

difference of the arithmetic sequence.

Example:

1. 1, 2, 3, 4, . . . d=1

2. 2, 4, 6, 6, . . . d=2

3. 3, 6, 9, 12, . . . d=3

The nth term of an Arithmetic Sequence

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence has the form an = a, + (n – 1) d

Where: d = common difference

a1 = first term

Example: Find a formula for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence with a first term

of 3 and a common difference of –s.

Given: a1, = 3, d = 5

Req’d: an = ?

an = a1 + (n-1) d

= 3 + (n-1) (-5)

= 3 – 5n + 5

An = 8 – 5n

Page
Example: Find the 20th term of an arithmetic sequence with

a1 = 3 and d = 6

Given: a1 = 3, d=6, n=20

Req’d: a20 = a1 + (n-1) d

= 3 + (20-1) 6

= 3 + (19) (6)

= 3 + 114

a20 = 117

Partial Sum of an Arithmetic Sequence

The nth partial sum of the arithmetic sequence having an nth term of an is

n
Sn = a1 + a2 + . . . + an = 2 (a1 + an) (1)

in other words, to find the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence, find the average

of the first term and the nth term, and multiply by n.

Another way of solving for the nth partial sum if the nth term is unknown is given by
n
Sn = 2 [2a + (n-1) d] (2)

Page
Example: Find the sum of 5 + 13 + 21 + 29 + 37 + 45 + 61 + 69 + 77 + 85

Solution: check if the sequence is arithmetic

13 – 5 = 8, 21 – 13 = 8, 29 – 21 = 8

Given: a1 = 5, d = 8, an = 61, n = 11

Req’d: Sn = ?
n
Sn = 2 (a1 + an)

11
= (5 + 85)

Example: Find the sum of the first 82 terms of an arithmetic sequence

with a1 = 103, and d = - 6.

Solution: Given: a1 = 103, d = - 6, n = 82

Req’d: Sn = ?
n
Sn = 2 [2a1 + (n - 1) d]

82
= [2 (103) + (82 – 1) (-6)]

= 41 [206 + (81) (-6)]

1.4 Geometric Sequence and Series

❖ Definition of a Geometric Sequence

A sequence is called geometric if the ratios of the consecutive term are the same, thus, the
𝑎2 𝑎3
sequence a1 a2, a3, a4, . . . an, . . . is geometric if there is a number r, r ≠ o such that 𝑎1 = r 𝑎2 =r,

𝑎4
=r and so on. The number r is called the common ratio of the geometric sequence
𝑎3

Example: 1) 5, 25, 125, 625 … r = 5

2) 3, 6, 12, 24 … r=2
1 1 1 1
3) 2 , 8, 32 . . . r=4

❖ The nth Term of a Geometric sequence

The nth term of a geometric sequence has the form

an = a, rn-1

where r is the common ratio of the consecutive terms of the sequence.

Example: Find the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence with a 1 = 1024 and a2 =

512. What is the fifth term of the sequence?

Given: a1= 1024 Req`d: a. an

a2= 512 b. a5

Solution:

a. an = a, rn-1

but r = a1 = 1024 = 2

∴ an = 1024 (2)n-1

₱150, 000 the first year with a yearly increase of 5%

a) How much will her total salary be after 10 years?


15

b) What would be her total salary over the 10-year period?

Given: a1 = 150, 000, n = 10

Req’d: a. a10

b. S10

Solution:

a) a10 = a1 r n-1

Solve for r:
a2
r=
a1

but a2 = a1 + a1 (5%)

= 150, 000 + 150, 000 (0.05)

a2 = 157, 500

a 157,000
∴ r = a2 = 150,000 = 1.05

∴ a10 = 150, 000 [1.05] 10 – 1

1.5. The Binomial Theorem

Consider the following expansion of (a+b)n.

(a + b)0 = 1

(a + b)1 = a+b

(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2

(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3

(a + b)4 = a4 + 4a3b + 6a2b2 + 4ab3 + b4

(a + b)5 = a5 + 5a4b + 10a3b2 + 10a2b3 + 5ab4 + b5

The following observation should be noted.

1. There is one more term than the power of the binomial n. Thus there are n + 1

terms in the expression of (a + b)n.

2. The sum of the exponents in each term of the expansion is the power to which the

binomial is raised.

3. The exponents of a is n, the power of the binomial, and the decrease by I on the

next term until it reaches 0 on the last term. Thus, the last term has no factor of a.

The first term has no factor of b, so the powers of b starts from o and increases by

1 on the next term until it reaches n on the last term.

4. The coefficients starts at 1 and increases through certain values about half-way
19

then decreases through these same values back to 1.

CHAPTER II. Correlation and Testing of Hypothesis
2.1 Correlation – deals with association (relationship) of two quantitative variables
The quantity “r”, called the linear correlation coefficient, measures the strength and
the direction of a linear relationship between two variables. The linear correlation
coefficient is sometimes referred to as the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation coefficient
in honor of its developer Karl Pearson
The mathematical formula for computing r is:
𝒏 ∑ 𝒙𝒚 − (∑ 𝒙) (∑ 𝒚)
𝒓 =
√[𝒏 ∑ 𝒙𝟐 − (∑ 𝒙)𝟐 ] [𝒏 ∑ 𝒚𝟐 − (∑ 𝒚)𝟐 ]
where n = the number of pairs of data
x and y = the variables

The value of r is such that −1 < r < +1. The + and – signs are used for the positive linear
correlation and negative linear correlations, respectively.
Positive correlation. If x and y have a strong positive linear correlation, r is close to the +1
An r value of exactly +1 indicates a perfect positive fit. Positive values indicate a
relationship between x and y variables such that at values for x increases values for y also
increases.
Negative correlation. If x and y have a strong linear correlation, r is close to −1. An r value
of exactly −1 indicates a perfect negative fit. Negative values indicate a relationship
between x and y such that as the values of x increases, values for y decreases.
No correlation: If there is no linear correlation or a weak linear correlation, r is close to 0. A
value near zero means that there is a random, non-linear relationship between the two
variables.
A perfect correlation of ±1 occurs only when the data points all lie exactly on a straight line.
If r = +1, the slope is positive. If r = −1, the slope of this line is negative.
24
Page
2.2 Spearman’s Rank – Order Correlation coefficient or Spearman’s rho
Another formula for correlation coefficient is the Spearman’s Rank – Order Correlation
named after Charles Spearman and often denoted by the Greek letter ρ (rho), or as rs , is a
non-parametric measure of statistical dependence between two variables. It assesses how
well the relationship between two variables can be described using a monotonic function. A
perfect Spearman correlation of +1 or −1 occurs when each of the variables is a perfect
monotone function of the other. x
𝟔 ∑ 𝑫𝟐
𝝆 (𝒓𝒉𝒐) = 𝟏 −
𝑵 (𝑵𝟐 − 𝟏)
where: 1 & 6 are empirical constant
D = difference in ranks of X and Y variables
N = number of pairs of X and Y

Positive Correlation
If variable x increases, y also increases. If x decreases, y decreases
Negative Correlation
If variable x increases, y decreases; If x decreases, y increases

2.3. Table of Values of r and ρ coefficient


Values of r or ρ Interpretation
±1 Perfect positive/negative correlation
± 0.91 − ± 0.99 Very high positive/negative correlation
± 0.71− ± 0.90 High positive/negative correlation
± 0.51 − ± 0.70 Moderately positive/negative correlation
± 0.31 − ± 0.50 Low positive/negative correlation
± 0.01 − ± 0.30 Negligible positive/negative correlation
0 No Correlation

Note: For r or ρ values with moderate, low or negligible correlations, Testing of


Hypothesis is required to determine if correlation really exist.
25
Page
2.4 Testing of Hypothesis

T-test is commonly used in testing correlation coefficient for significance since the usual
number of N is less than 30.

Procedure:
1. State the null and alternative hypothesis.
2. Locate the tabular values of t by the assigned level of confidence and degree of
freedom in the T-table.

3. Compute for the actual value of t.

Formula:

𝑵 −𝟐 𝑵 −𝟐
𝒕 = 𝒓 √𝟏 −𝒓𝟐 or 𝒕 = 𝝆 √𝟏 −𝝆𝟐

4. Decision:
If Ttab < Tc - reject HO
If Ttab > Tc - accept HO

5. Conclusion: It should finally answer if there is really a correlation or no correlation at


all between the two variables.

Where:

1 c d c+d
TOTAL a+c b+d

2.6 Requirements for using the Phi Coefficient


When both the independent (x) and predictor (y) variables can be dichotomized,
another technique is used which gives rise to the so-called phi-coefficient (Φ). This
correlation coefficient is just a special case of the Pearson product-moment
correlation coefficient.
To employ the phi coefficient as a measure of association between the independent
(x) and predictor (y) variables, we must consider the following requirements:
1. Nominal data. Only frequency (count) data are required;
2. A 2x2 contingency table. The data must be capable of being cast in the form of a 2x2
table. It is inappropriate to apply the phi coefficient to tables larger than 2x2, in
which several groups or categories are being compared (i.e. 2x3, 3x3, 3x4)
3. Random Sampling. To test the significance of the phi coefficient, sample members
must have been drawn randomly from a larger specified population.

2.6.2 Application:
The data below represent the responses of 137,143 respondents to two questions.
Question No.1 “Do you find it a habit to exercise daily?”. Question No.2 “Have you ever
tried smoking?”

Question No.1
Question No.2 Yes No Total
Yes 68,758 67,865 136,623
No 203 317 520
Total 68,961 68,182 137,143
39
Page
a. Is there a correlation between the responses of the respondents to the two
questions?
b. Compute the phi coefficient for the data.
c. Is the phi coefficient significant at 5% level?

Solution:
Step 1. Transform the given table into a 2x2 contingency table.
0 1 Total
0 a=68,758 b=67,856 a+b=136,623
1 c=203 d=317 c+d=520
Total a+c=68,961 b+d=68,182 a+b+c+d=137,143

Step 2. Substitute the values into the formula. Thus,

|𝑎𝑑 − 𝑏𝑐|
𝜙 =
√(𝑎 + 𝑏)(𝑐 + 𝑑)(𝑎 + 𝑐)(𝑏 + 𝑑)

|(68,758)(317) − (67,865)(203)|
𝜙 =
√(136,623)(520)(68,961)(68,182)
8,019,691
=
577,963,249.3

𝜙 = 0.014 negligible positive correlation

A value of Φ = 1 can only be obtained if a+b = c+d, in which case the subjects are equally
distributed between the two categories. A zero value of Φ is obtained when ad=bc.
The similarity of the phi coefficient and chi-square can be observed when the data are
set up into a 2x2 contingency table. The relationship between x2 and Φ is given by:
𝑥 2 = 𝑛𝜙 2
In view of this relationship, the Φ coefficient may be tested for the significance by using
the chi-square.

Page
Test for significance:

HO: There is no significant difference between the responses of the respondents


HA: There is a significant difference between the responses of the respondents.

Level of significance: 5%
Degree of Freedom: n – 1 = 2 -1 = 1

3.3 Introduction
One of the major applications of linear algebra involving systems of linear
equations is in finding the maximum or minimum of some quantity, such as profit or
cost. In mathematics, the process of finding an extreme value (i.e. the maximum or
minimum) of a quantity (normally called a function) is known as optimization.
Linear Programming (LP) is a branch of mathematics which deals with
modeling a decision problem and subsequently solving it by mathematical
techniques. The problem is presented in a form of linear function which is to be
optimized while subjected to a set of linear constraints. The function to be optimized
is known as the objective function.
Linear programming finds many uses in the business and industry, where a
decision maker may want to utilize limited available resources in the best possible
manner. This limited resources may include the material, money, manpower, space
and time. Linear programming provides various methods of solving such problems.
In this unit, we present the basic concepts of linear programming problems, their
formulation and methods of solution.

3.3.a Linear Programming: Graphical Solution Procedure

Step 1: Formulate the linear program.


a. State the objective function
b. Identify the constraints
➢ Explicit constraints
➢ Implicit constraints
Step 2: Graph the constraints (use Desmos approach)
Step 3: Identify the feasible region.
Step 4: Identify the critical points in the feasible region (use Cramer’s rule if
possible).
Step 5: Substitute the critical points in the objective function of the LP.
Step 6:
For maximation problems: The critical point(s) that gives the highest value is the
optimum solution
For minimization problems: The critical point(s) that gives the lowest value is the
optimum solution
53
Page
3.3.b EXAMPLE of Maximation prob:
Graphic Art Inc., a manufacturer of photographic products, prepares two types of
film developers each day: fine and extra-fine, using Solutions A and B as the raw
materials. Suppose that each quart of fine contains 2 oz. of Solution A and 1 oz. of
Solution B, while each quart of extra-fine contains 1 oz. of Solution A and 2 oz. of
Solution B. Suppose also that profit is 80 pesos for each quart of fine and 100 pesos
for each quart of extra-fine. If the firm has 50 oz. of solution A and 70 oz. of solution
B available each day, how many quarts of fine and how many quarts of extra-fine
should be made daily to maximize the profit?

Solution:
Let x = no. of quarts of fine to be made daily
y = no. of quarts of extra-fine to be made daily
For a quart of fine For a quart of extra-fine
2 oz. of Solution A 1 oz of solution A
1 oz. of Solution B 2 oz of solution B
Available oz. of solution per day
50 oz. of solution A
70 oz. of solution B
Profits for each quart of film developers
₱80 for each quart of fine
₱100 for each quart of extra-fine

3.3.c EXAMPLE of Minimization Problem:

The purchasing managers of a food company wants to determine the supply mix
with the least cost. He collects the date necessary for him to make a decision. A gallon
of milk A can produce 5 cases of cheese, 7 cases of batter and 9 cases of cream. In
contrast, a gallon of milk B can make 10 cases of cheese, 8 cases of batter and 4 cases
of cream. He must produce at least 100 cases of cheese, 112 cases of butter and 72
cases of cream per day. Milk A cost $5 per gallon while Milk B cost $6 per gallon.
How many gallons of Milk A and Milk B should he purchase per day to minimize the
cost?

Solution:
Let x = no. of gallons of Milk A to be purchased per day
y = no. of gallons of Milk B to be purchased per day
Product Milk A (x) Milk B (y) No. of cases/day

His friend advised him to invest at least 60% of the money to their credit union that
provides a monthly interest of 3.5% on investment and at most 20% of the money
to a lending institution that provides a 4.5% monthly interest on investment. How
much must he invest to the credit union and to the lending institution to maximize
his monthly earnings? How much will his monthly income be?

3.4 Linear Programming: Simplex Method

It is a repetitive optimizing technique developed by George B. Dantzig of


Stanford University. It can be used to maximize or minimize the value of problems,
especially when a large number of variables or constraints are present.

The simplex method is a procedure that starts with an initial basic feasible
solution tableau. It then proceeds step by step to subsequent solutions, each of which
is a basic feasible solution and has greater profit (or lesser cost) than the previous
solution. It is an iterative process which means that in working toward an optimal
solution, the computational process is repeated over and over following a standard
pattern until the best solution is obtained.

Procedure:
1. Formulate the Linear Program.
- State the objective function
- Identify the constraints
2. Introduce a slack variable in the constraint s to take the form of an equation
• Slack variable – a non-negative variable representing the difference
between the left and the right side of the inequality
3. Rewrite the objective function making the right side equal to zero.
4. Construct the Initial Basic Feasible Table.
5. Apply pivoting process until:
a. All entries in the objective function row are non-negative. It means
an optimum solution is obtained.
b. The section of the pivot column is a column whose entries are
negative or zero. If that is the case, it is unbounded and the linear
program has no optimum solution.
*Pivoting - the process of going from one simplex tableau to the next tableau.
Steps in the Pivoting Process:
1. Identify the pivot column. It is the column that contains the most negative
value in the objective function row.
2. Identify the pivot row. It is the row corresponding to the basic variable that
will leave the solution. It is determined by the test ratio, that is dividing the
RHS by the intersectional elements.
3. Determine the pivot element or point. It is the element which has the least
value in the test ratio.
4. Compute for the Replacing Row (RR)
62

𝑅𝑅 = 𝑃𝑖𝑣𝑜𝑡 𝑅𝑜𝑤 ÷ 𝑃𝑖𝑣𝑜𝑡 𝐸𝑙𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡


Page
5. Compute for the Remaining Rows = Previous Row minus intersectional
element times the replacing row.
6.Record your new entry in the next simplex tableau.

3.4.a EXAMPLE 1: MAXIMIZATION PROBLEM


The LPO Furniture make two products – tables and chairs, which must be
processed through this assembly and finishing departments. The assembly
department is available for 60 hours in every production period while finishing
department is available for 48 hours of work. Manufacturing 1 table required 4
hours in the assembly and 2 hours in the finishing department. A chair takes 2
hours to assemble and 4 hours to finish. A table is worth ₱80 while a chair is
₱60. Determine the number of tables and chairs to maximize the profit per
production process.
Solution:
Let x1 = no. of tables per production period
x2 = no. of chair per production period
Per table: Per chair:
4 hours in assembly 2 hours in assembly
2 hours in finishing 4 hours in finishing
Available hours for processing
60 hours → assembly
48 hours → finishing
Profit:
₱80 per table
₱60 per chair

CHAPTER 4 MATHEMATICS OF INVESTMENT
Introduction
Why do you need to know investments, bonds, stocks, interest? Why is there a need
to invest your hard- earned money?
Whether you just want to save for that phone or tablet that you wanted to buy; or
you’re saving for a gift you wanted to give to your parents’ birthday; or you as a parent
plans on using your credit card in paying your child’s tuition fee payable in 6 months with
0% interest; all these reasons why you plan to invest or save your money, entails knowing
some things about interest rates and ideas in investment or finance.
Having knowledge in basic concepts of business mathematics or mathematics of
investment may help you decide whether to use that credit card for a 5% interest
compounded monthly or a simple interest for a period of 6 months. Some topics might shed
light on which banks would give a higher interest rate for your savings. As a young couple
starting a family, one might plan for their children’s future by understanding stock, bonds
or funds accumulations. These are but a few reasons for investing your hard -earned
money.
We will tackle the concepts of simple and compound interest as well as annuities
and amortization.

Interest
Refers to the fee or payment for the use of money. When you deposit money in a bank, it
will earn interest but when you borrow money from the bank, you will pay interest.

Concepts of Simple Interest


The amount of simple interest is determined using (3) factors. These factors are the
principal or debt, the rate of interest and duration (length of time).
The principal (P) refers to the amount deposited or borrowed.
The rate of interest (R) refers to the percentage of the principal per year. It is
generally expressed in percent(%) per year.
The time (T) refers to the length of time or period from the date of loan/deposit is
made to the date the loan/deposit becomes due or payable/withdrawable.
76

A simple interest (I) is the interest charged on the principal for duration or period
Page

of the loan/deposit.
Formula:
Simple Interest I = PRT
𝐼
Principal P = 𝑅𝑇
𝐼
Rate of Interest R = 𝑃𝑇 x100%
𝐼
Time T = 𝑃𝑅

Applications:
1. A man borrowed ₱ 25,000 for 2 ¼ years at 8% per year. Find the amount of simple
interest.
Given: P = ₱ 25,000
R = 8% = 0.08
T = 2 ¼ year =2.25
Req’d.: I = ?
Solution:
I = PRT

I = 25,000 x 0.08 x 2.25

I = ₱4,500 Ans.

2. A loan of ₱ 28,900 is obtained for 5 months at 8 3/5 % . How much is the simple
interest?
Given: P = ₱ 28,900
R = 8 3/5% = 0.086
T = 5 months = 5/12 years
Req’d: I = ?
Solution:
I = PRT

I = 28,900 x 0.086 x 5/12

I = ₱1,035.58 (rounded to the nearest centavo) Ans.

Page
3. A man borrowed ₱37,500 at 8 ½% simple interest for 120 days. Find the amount of
interest he has to pay? (Note: in calculating time, we apply the Banker’s Rule,i.e. 360
days in a year)
Given: P = ₱ 37,500
R = 8 ½% = 0.085
T = 120 days = 120/360 = 1/3 year
Req’d: I = ?
Solution:
I = PRT

I = 37,500 x 0.085 x 1/3

I = ₱ 1,062.50 Ans.

4. A vendor borrows a certain amount of money at 8% simple interest for 3 months.


Determine the principal that results in interest amounting to
₱ 600.
Given: I = ₱ 600
R = 8% = 0.08
T = 3 months =3/12 =1/4 year
Req’d: P = ?
Solution:
𝐼
P = 𝑅𝑇

600
P =0.08 𝑥 1/4

P = ₱ 30,000 Ans.

5. If ₱ 60,000 was deposited in a bank and became ₱ 61,625 at the end of 150 days,
find the interest rate.
Given: P = ₱ 60,000
I = ₱ 61,625 - ₱ 60,000 = ₱ 1,625
T = 150 days = 150/360 = 5/12years
Req’d: R =?
Solution:
𝐼
R = 𝑃𝑇 x 100%

6. How many days did it take Romy to place ₱ 120,000 in an investment house that
pays 8% simple interest before he obtained an interest of ₱ 4,000.
Given: P = ₱ 120,000
I = ₱ 4,000
R = 8% = 0.08
Req’d: T = ?
Solution:
𝐼
T = 𝑃𝑅 x 360 days Banker’s Rule

4,000
T = 120,000 𝑥 0.08 x 360

T = 150 days Ans

Maturity Value:(M)
When a certain amount of money is deposited or borrowed, the sum of money at the
end of the period is called the maturity or accumulated value. The maturity value or
accumulated value is therefore equal to the sum of the principal and the interest earned.

Formula:
Maturity value M=P+I → 1

M = P + PRT → 2

M = P ( 1 + RT ) → 3

Application:
1. A sum of ₱ 43,200 is borrowed for 11 months at 7 1/5% simple interest. Determine
the maturity value,
Given: P = ₱ 43,200
R = 7 1/5% = 7.2% = 0.072
T = 11 months = 11/12 year
Req’d: M = ?
79

Solution:
Page

M = P ( 1 + RT )
M = 43,200 ( 1 + 0.072 x 11/12 )

M = ₱ 46,051.20 Ans.

Present Value ( P’ )
When applying for a loan in a bank, interest on the loan maybe deducted in advance.
The amount after interest was deducted is called the present value of the loan.

Formula:
Present Value: P’ = P – I → 1

P’ = P – PRT → 2

P’ = P ( 1- RT ) → 3

Application:
1. Mr. Santos needs ₱ 150,000 now to buy a service jeep for his business. He
decided to borrow from a bank that charges 8% simple interest deducted in
advance. How much loan should he apply for if he pays it in 2 years?
Given: P’ = ₱ 150,000
R = 8% = 0.08
T = 2 years
Req’d: P = ?

Solution:
From P’ = P ( 1- RT)

𝑃′
P = ( 1−𝑅𝑇)

150,000
P = ( 1−0.08 𝑥2)

P = ₱ 178,571.43 Ans.

Compound Interest:
The interest on the principal and interest of the previous periods. It is the difference
between the compound amount (A) and the principal (P).

Formula:

Compound Interest I=A–P

Compound Amount ( A )
It is the accumulated value/future value of the investment or loan at the end of the
term or last period.

Formula:

𝑗
Compound amount A = P ( 1 + 𝑚 )n → 1

Where: j = nominal rate


m = mode of conversion
n = conversion period
i = rate of conversion = j/m

A = P ( 1 + i )n → 2

Present Value (P)


It is the original principal invested before it earns interest. It is the amount invested
today and will have a specific value in the future.

Formula:

𝐴
Present value P = ( 1+𝑖 )^𝑛 → 1

P = A ( 1+ i )-n → 2

n = 2 years
m =1
85

Req’d: j = ?
Page

Solution:
From A = P ( 1 + i )n

( 1 + i ) n = A/P

[ ( 1 + i ) n]1/n = ( A/P) 1/n

1 + i = ( A/P) 1/n

i = (A/P) 1/n - 1

But, i = j/m
j/m = (A/P) 1/n – 1

therefore: j = m [ (A/P)1/n – 1] 100%

j = I [ (70,000/60,000) ½ - 1 ] 100%

j = 8.01% Ans. ( rounded to hundredths place value)

J = 8% = 0.08
M=4

Req’d: T = ?
Solution:
From A=P(1+I)n

( 1 + I ) n = A/P

Apply logarithm to both sides;

log ( 1+ I ) n = log (A/P)

An annuity is a series of equal payments made at equal intervals of time either at the
beginning or at the end of the paying period.

Two common type of annuity (Preferred by Banks)

1. Ordinary Annuity – payment made at the end of payment period.


2. Annuity Due – payment made at the beginning of payment period

ORDINARY ANNUITY
Amount of an Ordinary Annuity (So)
The sum of all the payments and the accumulated interest. It is known also as the
cash value.

Present Value of an Ordinary Annuity ( Ao )


The sum of money today which if invested at a specified rate will amount to all the
payments and the compound interest at the end of the term of annuity.

1−(1+𝑖)−𝑛
