What is Simple Interest ? The interest for an initial amount (investment, loan, etc.,) for a certain period of time is the SIMPLE INTEREST.
How is Simple Interest Calculated? • Simple interest is calculated with the formula : • SI = P*N*R • 100 • Where, • P = Prinicipal Amount • N = Number of Years • R = Rate of Interest
Principal • The amount borrowed from someone as a loan or debt is called the principal.
Interest Rate • The rate at which the interest is paid for the initial amount borrowed.
Number of Period in Years • The time period you will take to return the original amount borrowed.
Simple Interest Calculation • Consider you have borrowed a sum of Rs. 50,000 from a lender for 2 years at a rate of 2 %. • To find SI, substitute all the values in formula, • = 50000 * (2/ 100) * 2 • = 500 * 2 * 2 • = 2000 • Hence you need to pay Rs.2000 as SI.
