Exercise 2
Step 1
1 of 5
a.) If the difference between amount owned in consecutive year is constant, then it is simple interest. If the ratio between consecutive year is constant, then it is compound interest.

for Loan$#$1

$3942-3796=$146$

$4088-3942=$146$

Therefore, Loan $#1$ is done with simple interest.

Loan $#2$

$dfrac{1036.18}{977.53}approx 1.06$

$dfrac{1098.35}{1036.18}approx 1.06$

Therefore, Loan $#2$ is done with compound interest.

Step 2
2 of 5
b.) Since loan number 1 is simple interest,

$I=Prt$

$146=(3796-146)times r times 1$

$r=0.04=4.0%$

Since Loan number 2 is compound interest

$A=P(1+i)^m$

$1036.18=977.53(1+i)^1$

$$
i=0.06=6%/a
$$

Step 3
3 of 5
c) The principal for loan number 1 is

$3796-146=$3650$

The principal loan for loan number 2 is

$$
dfrac{977.53}{1.06^2}=$870
$$

Step 4
4 of 5
d.) The value after 10 years are

loan 1: $A=P(1+rt)=3650(1+0.04times 10)=$5110$

loan 2: $A=P(1+i)^m=870(1+0.06)^{10}=$1558.04$

Result
5 of 5
a) simple interest, compound interest

b) $4%/a$, $6%/a$

c) $$3,650$ , $$870$

d) $$5110$ , $$1558.04$
