COMPOUND INTEREST Calculate the new balance on a deposit which is compounded quarterly for 4 years at a given annual interest rate. SOLUTION: 1. Calculate the quarterly interest rate. 2. Calculate the new balance (principal plus interest). FORMULA: New balance = P (1 + i) n Where P = amount of deposit (principal) i = interest rate per period n = number of years × 4 EXAMPLE: If P = $6,150 i = 5% annum ÷ 4 periods = 0.0125 n = 16 (4 years × 4) Then 6,150 (1.0125)16 .=. $7,502.32 (New Balance) (QS-2760H/2770H): OPERATION DISPLAY PRINT .05 0.05 0.05 ÷ Annual int. rate 4 4. = 0.0125 Quarterly int. rate 0.0125 0.0125 0.0125 + 1 1.0125 1. + 1.0125 ◊ (1 + i) 6150 1.0125 1.02515625 1.02515625 1.05094533691 1.05094533691 1.10448610117 1.10448610117 1.21988954767 1.21988954767 7,502.32071817 1.0125 × 1.0125 = 1.02515625 (1 + i)2 1.02515625 × 1.02515625 = 1.05094533691 (1 + i)4 1.05094533691 × 1.05094533691 = 1.10448610117 (1 + i)8 1.10448610117 × 1.10448610117 = 1.21988954767 (1 + i)16 1.21988954767 × 6,150. = Principal 7,502.32071817 New Balance - 48 -

COMPOUND INTEREST
Calculate the new balance on a deposit which is compounded quarterly for 4 years at a
given annual interest rate.
SOLUTION:
1.
Calculate the quarterly interest rate.
2.
Calculate the new balance (principal plus interest).
FORMULA:
New balance = P (1
+
i)
n
Where
P
=
amount of deposit (principal)
i
=
interest rate per period
n
=
number of years
×

EXAMPLE:
If
P
=
$6,150
i
=
5% annum
÷
4 periods = 0.0125
n
=
16 (4 years
×
