    (Assume an annual compound interest rate of 8%, compounded annually.)

    I think #2's formula is bewteen compound interest formula A = p(1+ r/n)^nt or the present value formula P= A/(1+r/n)^nt i'm not sure.

  • PLs HELP me OUT MATHEMATICIANS and EXperts!!?

    i know the trick behind this simple interest problems but i can't arrive at the final answer. i'm doing someti

    1, We borrowed $5000 for two years, with a simple annual interest rate of 8%. After 8 months, we

    make a partial payment of $1000. After an additional 8 months, we make another partial payment

    of $1000. How much do we have to pay at the end of the two years?

    $5000(1+0.08 *8/12)= 526.67

    526.67-1000=473.33

    473.33( 1+0.08 *8/12)= 498.57

    498.57-1000

    501.43(1+0.08 *8/12)

    =$528.17 Which is my final answer but it's wrong i don't know why

    2, We borrowed $1000 for a year, with a simple annual interest rate of 8%. After 5 months, we make a

    partial payment of $300. After an additional 3 months, we make another partial payment of $350.How much do we have to pay at the end of the year?

    1000(1+0.08 * 5/12)=1033.33

    1033.33-300

    733.33(1+0.08 * 3/12)= 747.10

    747.10-350

    397.1(1+0.08 *4/12)= 407.69

    $407.69 was my final answer which is WRong. The correct answer is $ 408.6
