Key Topics to Revise

1

Basic Concepts and Definitions

  • Amount = Principal + Interest (A = P + I)
  • In compound interest, interest is added to principal after each conversion period
  • The principal changes (increases) every conversion period
2

Step-by-Step Calculation Method

  • Calculate interest for first period using simple interest formula
  • Add this interest to principal to get amount for first period
  • This amount becomes principal for second period
3

Different Rates for Different Years

  • Sometimes different rates apply to different years
  • Calculate each year separately using its specific rate
  • Principal still updates after each year
4

Partial Payments and Outstanding Amounts

  • Sometimes borrower makes partial payments during loan period
  • Subtract payment from amount due to get new principal
  • Continue compound interest calculation on remaining amount
