Q1. Go to various bank and determine the interest rate on their savings or time deposit accounts.
Sources: COOPERATIVE BANK (COOP-PINGKIAN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
COOPERATIVE (PCDC)
The interest rate is 3% up to 5%, and their savings or time deposit accounts is 5,000.00.

If a bank offers 3% interest rate and invested an amount of 5,000 the amount to be worth after
10 years is 6,500 while in 20 years is 8,000.

If the interest rate is 5% the amount of 5,000 after 10 years is 2,500 while in 20 years the
amount is 5,000.00.
Summary of the answers:
* Interest rate: 3% * Interest rate: 5%

a.) after 10 years = 6,500.00 c.) after 10 years = 2,500.00


b.) after 20 years = 8,000.00 d.) after 20 years = 5,000.00
Solution:
a.) (5000) (0.03) (10) c.) (5000) (0.05) (10)
= 6,500.00 = 2,500.00
b.) (5000) (0.03) (20) d.) (5000) (0.05) (20)
= 8,000.00 = 5,000.00

Q2. Find a cooperative in your community and ask about its interest rates.
Question: How much you will be charged if you want to loan 15,000.00 to be paid by monthly?

Loan amount : 15,000


Term : 170 days
Interest rate : 4% (MISD)
Interest payment: monthly

No. Due Date Principal Interest Amount Balance


1 06/03/17 0.06 4% 15,000
2 07/05/17 0.00 4% 15,000
3 08/08/17 0.00 4%
4 09/10/17 0.00 4%
5 10/12/17 0.00 4%
6 11/18/17 15,000 4% 1,504.00
15,000 0.24 15,000.25 0.00

Q3. Interview a real state agent, vehicle dealer or someone buho sells installment get a sample of
a quotation for what they are selling.
Following questions are:

Cash value of the property = 49,9000


Down Payment = 4,000
Mortgage = 2,375
Term of the loan = 36 months
Monthly payment = 2,375
Total interest = 85,500

* these are the sample quotation of the vehicle dealer.

Q4. Find situations involving annuities in your community.


Sources: S&G Marketing
*Go to an appliances store and ask how much a certain appliance costs if it is (a) paid in full, or
(b) paid by installment.

*If you know someone borrowing from a money tender, you can ask how much you will be charged
if you want to loan 1,000, payable in 1 year. [one common non-formal lending practice in
Philippines is called five-six].

*In our survey the appliances costs 13,000 can be paid 6 monthly payments of 2,196, then the
formula 13000 = 2196 1 (1tj) 6 must be satisfied.
j

Experiment with the different values for j to determine the interest rate for the period, and the
annual rate.

Example of our appliances that we surveyed.


LED TV 32

Cash = 13,000 r = 10%


Down payment = 2,600 j = i(m) = 0.10 = 0.008
MI = 2196 (6 mos.) m 12
TP = 15,776
Interest = TP Cash = 15776 - 13,000 = 2776 the interest
Interest = 2776 (6 mos.)
