INTEREST TABLE.
A SIMPLE ROLE FOR ACCURATELY COMPUTING INTEREST AT ANY GIVEN PER CANI. FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME.
Multiply the principal (amount of money at interest ) by the time reduced to days; then divide this product by the quotient obtained by dividing 360 (the number of days In the Interest years by the per cent. of interest. and the quotient thus obtained will be the required Interest.
ILLUSTRATION Solution.
Require th . Interest of $ 162 50 for one month and eighteen days at 6 per cent. All Interest month is 30 days ; one month and eighteen daysegnal 9 days. $462 50 multi- pHed by 13 gives 5242 0000. 360 divided by 6 ithe per cent. of Interest gives to, and $224 0000 divide Thy bo will give you the eriet Interest, which is $3.70. Ifthe rate ul 370000 interest In the above example were 12 per cent., we would divide the $292 0000 by 30 6 360 145000 breanse 360 divided by 19 gives 30 ;; if ) per cent., we would divlde by 90; If 5 per _ rent., by 45: and In like manner for any other per cent. 00 /$222.0000 $3 70 180
