What are the advantages of
having a savings account?

WHY SAVE MONEY?
A little goes a long way…
• Person 1 (age 18) puts
away $3,000 per year in
her Individual Retirement
Account (IRA) earning
10% - she does this for
10 years then stops.
• She accumulates
$1,239,564 by the age of
65.
• 3000 x .10 x 10 years

Person 2 waits until
he is 28. He
contributes $3,000 to
his IRA account

years.
He accumulates

age of 65.

Time Value of Money
• Time value of money -- Money to be paid out or
received in the future is not equivalent to money
paid out or received today.
Rule of 72
8% x no. of years = 72
TIME NEEDED FOR MONEY TO
DOUBLE
OR 72 DIVIDED BY THE RATE
$1,000 AT 8% WILL DOUBLE
IN APPROXIMATELY 9 YEARS
Examples: @ 2% years to double =
Example: @ 4% years to double =

Which would you rather have? Million dollars
or a penny that doubled it’s value everyday?
A few years back I was having a conversation with some people on
how whenever you decide to invest in something for the long term,
you should always think ahead on what would be the best choice in
the long run while having persistence to follow through with it. The
scenario was that if you were given a choice to receive one million
dollars in one month or a penny doubled every day for 30 days,
which one would you choose? When I first heard this, I knew that
the penny doubled everyday must have been the better choice to
go with as it was a little obvious to me that it had to be a trick
question of some sort. But how much better would it be was not
something that I knew immediately. So to demonstrate this, it was
actually written out with all the calculations and it turned out to
something like this:

Time Value of Money: Money is worth more in the future, than what it is
worth today.

Principal (P)
annual interest rate (R)
Time (T)
The amount of time for which the principal is
borrowed or invested. (How long was the money
in the bank?)
When you calculate time in an equation, it must be written as “part
of a year” if it is less than a year.
Examples:
3 months 3/12______
7 months __7/12____
15 days _15/365_____
26 days __26/365____

AMOUNT
• If the interest is computed and deposited into the
account, the new quantity is called the amount.
Amount = Principal + Interest (A = P + I)
Interest = Principal x Rate x Time (I = PRT)
Example:
• You open a savings account and deposit $9,000. Your bank
advertises a 5.5% annual interest rate. If you don’t make any
deposits or withdrawals, how much interest will you make in 3
years?
Principal ($_9000__) x Rate (__5.5_%) x Time (_3 years)
1. Convert the rate to a decimal: _______% = _.055_____
2. If the “Time” is less than a year, write it as part of a year
(this example is not)
3. Multiply the Principal x Rate x Time:
$__9000___ x __.055__ x 1____ = $___495____
• You will make $__495___ interest in 1 year.
4. Find the “Amount” = P + I
Principal ($__9000) + Interest ($_495_) = $_9495_
Using the same example, how much interest
will you earn at the end of 3 months?
Interest = P ($_9000__) x R (.055) x T (__3/12___)
remember it is part of a year
$_9000 x .055 x 3_÷ 12_= $_123.75_ (interest for 3 months)
• Amount = $_9000___ + $123.75_ = $__9123.75
Using the same example, calculate the interest
earned for 3 days.
Interest = P ($_9000_) x R (_5.5%) x T (3/365)
$__9000 x _.055 x _3_ ÷ _365_ = $_4.07_
Interest = $__4.07___(round final answer to a dollar amount)
Amount: $_9000 + $_4.07___= $_9004.07_

7a. .59
b. $720.59
8a. $506.36 b. $6,398.51
9a. $232.57 b. $27,201.01
10. $760 x .05 x 3/12 = $9.50
11. $2,430 x .0675 x 65/365 = $769.50
12. 618.75 = 15,000 x .055 x T/12
618.75 = 825T
12
Multiply both sides by 12: 7425 = 825T
Divide each side by 825: 9 = T (9 months)
13. 10,000 = P x .0475 x 90

P = $853,801.1672 = $853,801.17
14. $75,760 – 73,000 = $2760 (this is the interest)
$2,760 = $73,000 x .075 x T

$2,760 = 456.25 T
