b What is the new discounted price of this item?
Percentage change Discount: Example: a How much is saved if a 25% discount is offered on an item marked $8.00? Discount = 25×8 = 200 = $2 b What is the new discounted price of this item? New price = original price - discount = =$6 or New price = (100 - r) × original price = 75×8 = $6
2
Increase: Example: a If petrol prices increase by 10%, what is the amount of the increase when the price is 99.0 cents per litre? Increase = 10 × 99 = 9.9 cents 100 b What is the new price per litre for petrol? New price = = cents per litre Given the original price and the new price of an item, we can work out the percentage change.

Example: a If the price of a book is reduced from $25 to $20, what percentage discount has been applied? percentage discount = discount × 100 = 5 × 100 =20 % original price b If the price of a book is increased from $20 to $25, what percentage increase has been applied? percentage increse = increase × 100 = 5 × 100 =25 % original price Sometimes we are given the new price and the percentage increase or decrease (r%), and asked to determine the original price. We can do this by using the above formulas for new price and rearange them to find the original price . Example:Suppose that Steve has a $60 gift voucher from his favourite shop. a If the store has a ‘25% off’ sale, what is the original value of the goods he can now buy? New price = original price ×100 - r 100 60 = original price × 75 original price = 100 ×60 = $80 75

new price = original price × 100 +r
b If the store raises its prices by 25%, what is the original value of the goods he can now buy? new price = original price × 100 +r 100 60 = original price × 125 original price = 100 × 60 = $48 125 Simple interest The price of borrowing or lending money is called interest. The simple interest is the interest that is calculated only by the initial amount of investment or loan and is not calculated according to the balance. The following formula is used for simple interest: From the graph we can see that the relationship of ‘time’ and ‘simple interest’ is linear. The slope or gradient of a line which could be drawn through these points is numericaly equal to the interest rate.

To determine the amount of the investment, the interest earned is added to the amount initially invested. Example:How much interest would be due on a loan of $5000 at 10% per annum for six months? I = Prt = 5000 × 10 × 0.5 = = $250 Example:Find the total amount owed on a loan of $ at 12% per annum simple interest at the end of two years. I = Prt = × 12 × 2 = = $2400 A = P+I = = $12 400
6
Using the simple interest formula we can find the Principal, the Interest Rate and the Period.
Example: Find the length of time it would take for $ invested at an interest rate of 8% per annum to earn $ interest. I = Prt 100 t = 100 I = 100 × = 25 years Pr × 8 Example: Find the amount that should be invested in order to earn $1350 interest over 3 years at an interest rate of 4.5% per annum. I = Prt 100 P = 100 I = 100 × = $10 000 rt × 3 Example: Find the rate of simple interest charged per annum if a loan of $ incurs interest of $ after eight years. I = Prt 100 r = 100 I = 100 × = 7.5% per annum Pt × 8

To find the compount interest we can use
Compound interest Compound interest is different from simple interest because is calculated according to the new balance and not according to the initial amount.The relationship of the ‘compount interest’ against ‘time’ is not linear and is clearly shown on the graph below: To find the compount interest we can use the ‘Compount Interest Formula’ or the ‘TVM’ solver which is on the calculator menu of your CAS.
8
To find the amount of interest earned, we need to subtract the initial investment (P) from the
final amount(A). I = A - P Example: a Determine the amount of money accumulated after four years if $10000 is invested at an interest rate of 9% per annum, compounded annually, giving your answer to the nearest dollar. Using the formula: A = P (1+ r/n )t 100 A = ( 1 + 9/100)4 =10000×1.4116 =$14116 to the nearest dollar Using the TVM The interpretation of each function of ‘finance solver is as follows: N = number of periods I% = interest PV=initial amount (invested or borrowed) PMT= repayments (not applicable) FV = final amount PpY = payments in a year CpY = the times that the interest is compounded in a year Note:We enter +when we receive money (loans) and - when we give money (repayments,investements)

Using the finance solver
b Determine the amount of interest earned. I = A - P I = = $ 4116 Example: a Determine the amount accrued if $2700 is invested at an interest rate of 6% per annum for a period of two years and interest is compounded monthly. Using the formula: A = P (1+ r/n )nt 100 A = 2700 ( 1 + 6/12)12×2 = $ Example: How much money must you deposit at 7% per annum compound interest, compounding yearly, if you require $ in three years’ time? Give your answer to the nearest dollar. Using the finance solver
