Calculation of interest is all around us: savings accounts, car loans, mortgages, credit cards, student loans... Because interest will always be with you, it is important for you to really grasp how it will play a part in your everyday life. In the Business Math quiz entitled “Calculating Interest Per Year”, you revisited the basic steps of how to calculate simple yearly interest. This quiz will continue that practice exercise. By now, you should be able to calculate these pretty quickly but don’t go too fast. Remember to find the right answer you will need to follow the simple formula:
$12,250.00 at 5.465% for 5 years.
I = PRT
12,250 x 0.05465 x 5
12,250 x 0.05465 = 669.46
669.46 x 5 = 3,347.30
I = $3,347.30
Answer (b) is the correct answer
