Example 1. To buy furniture for a new apartment, Pamela Shipley borrowed $5000 at 8%
simple interest for 11 months. How much interest will she pay?
Example 2. Find the Future (maturity) value for each loan at simple interest.

Example 3. Alicia Rinke wants to borrow $8000 from Robyn Martin. She is willing to pay
back $8180 in 6 months. What interest rate will she pay?
Compound annually: 𝑚 = 1, so 𝑖 = 𝑟, 𝑛 = 𝑡
Compound semiannually: đť‘š = 2, so đť‘– =đť‘ź
2, 𝑛 = 2𝑡
Compound quarterly: đť‘š = 4, so đť‘– =đť‘ź
4, 𝑛 = 4𝑡
Compound monthly: đť‘š = 12, so đť‘– =đť‘ź
12, 𝑛 = 12𝑡
Compound daily: đť‘š = 365, so đť‘– =đť‘ź
365, 𝑛 = 2𝑡
