When we deposit money in a bank, we receive some interest for allowing the
bank to use our money. Similarly, when we borrow money from the bank, we have to
pay a certain interest for using its money.
The amount of money borrowed or the capital is called principal(P) and the
addition money paid for the privilege of using the principal is called interest (I).
The interest is usually calculated at a fixed yearly rate called rate per annum.
Sometimes interest rates are calculated on half-yearly or quarterly, monthly or even
daily. The amount of interest depends on the length of time the money is deposited or
borrowed.
If the interest is always calculated on the original principal, it is called simple
interest. When the interest is added to the principal the sum is called the amount (A)
Let us study the formula below.
Simple interest (I)= PxRxT
Amount = P+I
Example 1. A man borrows 3,500 for 2 years at a rate of 5% per annum. How much simple
interest does he need to pay at the end of 2 years?
Example 2: To save money, for new appliances, Ronald invested 25,000 at 8% per annum
simple interest. How long will it take the money to reach the target amount of
34,000?
Solution: Simple Interest = 34,000 – 25,000 = 9,000
8
I=9,000 R=8%= P= 25,000
100
I= P x R x T
25,000 x 8 xT
9,000=
100
T=(9,000x100) ÷(25,000x8)
=900,000 ÷ 200,000

= 4.5 or 4 years

Therefore, it will take him 4 years to reach the required amount.

Example 3: Tony wanted to borrow some money to renovate his house. He was told that he
could borrow a sum of money for 54months at 8% simple interest per year end
and pay 25,000 in interest charges. How much money could he borrow?
54
Solution: T= = 4.5 years
12
I= P x R x T
Px 8 x 4.5
25,000=
100
=(25,000x100) ÷ (8x4.5)
=2,500,000÷36
= 69,444.44
Therefore, he can borrow about 69,000.

Example 4: To buy a new air-conditioning unit, Robert borrowed 25,000 for 2 years and paid
2
3,550 simple interest for the loan. What rate of interest did he pay?
Solution: I= P x R x T
25,000 x R x 2.5
3,550=
100
R= (3,550 x 100) ÷ (25,000 x 2.5)
R= 355,000÷ 62,500
R= 5.68%
Therefor, he paid 5.68% simple interest per year.
