Given a building its initial value is 2,000,000 SR at the first
5 years simple interest rate is = 10 % and at the second 5 years
compound interest rate is = 8 %.
1) Find the future value of this building after: A) 7 years old,
and B)10 years old.
2) If the future value of this building after 10 years is 4,000,000
SR find its initial value now. 3) If the initial value is 2,000,000
SR and future value of this building is 5,000,000 SR find total
years old of this building.
1 Future value of this building after : A) 7 years old
Initial value: 2000000 SR
First 5 years simple interest rate is= 10 %
Second 5 years compound interest rate is= 8 %
Simple interest for first 5 years
Simple interest(SI) = Principal x Rate of Interest x Time(years) / 100
SI= 2000000 x 10 x 5 / 100
SI= 10000 SR
Building value after 5 years= 2000000+10000= 2010000 SR
New principal= 2010000 SR
Time= 2 Years
Rate of interest= 8%
Compound Interest(CI)= Principal(1+R/100)T
CI= 2010000(1+8/100)2
CI= 2010000(1+0.08)2
CI= 2010000 x 1.08 x 1.08
CI= 2344464 SR
Future value of this building after : A) 7 years old= New principal+ Compound interest for next 2 years= 2010000+ 2344464= 4354464 SR
Find the future value of this building after: B)10 years old.
Compound interest for next 5 years= Principal(1+R/100)T
New principal after 5 tears= 2010000 SR
CI= 2010000(1+8/100)5
CI= 2010000(1+0.08)5
CI= 2010000 x 1.08 x 1.08 x 1.08 x 1.08 x 1.08
CI= 2953349.434
Future value of this building after: B)10 years old: New principal+ Compound interest for next 5 years= 2010000+2953349.434= 4963349.434 SR
2 If the future value of this building after 10 years is 4,000,000 SR find its initial value now.
Rate of interest= 10%
We assume its initial value: 2000000 SR
Simple Interest= Future value- Initial value
Simple interest(SI)= 4000000-2000000
SimpIe Interest(SI)= 2000000
It is based on Simple interest formula
Simple interest(SI) = Principal x Rate of Interest x Time(years) / 100
Principal(Initial value)= SI x 100/ R x T
Principal(Initial value)= 2000000 x 100/ 10 x 10
Principal(Initial value)= 2000000 SR
3) If the initial value is 2,000,000 SR and future value of this building is 5,000,000 SR find total years old of this building.
Simple Interest= Total value(Principal+ Simple interest)- Initial value
Simple Interest= 5000000-2000000= 3000000 SR
Principal/Initial value= 2000000 SR
Rate of interest= 10%
Simple interest(SI) = Principal x Rate of Interest x Time(years) / 100
Time= SI x 100/Principal x Rate of interest
Time= 3000000 x 100/2000000 x 10
Time= 15 Years.
