Annual Percentage Rate (APR) • Often accounts are given an APR. • This assumes the interest is compounded only once a year. • To determine the compounding interest rate divide the APR by the number of times in a year the interest is compounded.
Annuities • A sequence of periodic payments instead of a lump sum. • Ordinary annuities are when the deposits are made at the end of each period at the same time the interest is posted in the account. FV: future value R: amount of each equal payment i: interest rate (if given APR, divide by number of payments in a year) n: total number of payments
Example 1 Given APR and interest is compounded quarterly so divide i by 4 =$64,952.14 Betsy invested $250 × 4 × 25= $25,000 So she made $64,952.14 - $25,000 = $39,952.14 in interest which is a return of 160% on her investment.
Example 2 Given APR and interest is compounded twice a year so divide i by 2 =$15,993.37
15,000=73.919R R=$202.92 Josh needs to deposit $202.92 each month Example 3 Given APR and interest is compounded monthly so divide i by 12
