  2. Accumulation function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accumulation_function

    [1] [2] It is used in interest theory. Thus a(0)=1 and the value at time t is given by: = (). where the initial investment is (). For various interest-accumulation protocols, the accumulation function is as follows (with i denoting the interest rate and d denoting the discount rate):

  3. Compound interest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_interest

    The force of interest is less than the annual effective interest rate, but more than the annual effective discount rate. It is the reciprocal of the e -folding time. A way of modeling the force of inflation is with Stoodley's formula: δ t = p + s 1 + r s e s t {\displaystyle \delta _{t}=p+{s \over {1+rse^{st}}}} where p , r and s are estimated.

  4. Effective interest rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_interest_rate

    The effective interest rate (EIR), effective annual interest rate, annual equivalent rate (AER) or simply effective rate is the percentage of interest on a loan or financial product if compound interest accumulates in periods different than a year. [1] It is the compound interest payable annually in arrears, based on the nominal interest rate ...

  5. Annual percentage rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_percentage_rate

    9.091% annual rate in advance, because (1.1-1)÷1.1=0.09091; These rates are all equivalent, but to a consumer who is not trained in the mathematics of finance, this can be confusing. APR helps to standardize how interest rates are compared, so that a 10% loan is not made to look cheaper by calling it a loan at "9.1% annually in advance".

  6. Day count convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_count_convention

    Online calculation of interest and rate indicators with different day count conventions, created by SIX Swiss Exchange. Pricing of Game Options (in a market with stochastic interest rates) - Section Chapter II: A Little Bit of Finance, Section 1: Brief introduction to Financial Securities, from pages 26 to 33, formally mention day count ...

  7. Rate (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a rate is the quotient of two quantities, often represented as a fraction. [1] If the divisor (or fraction denominator) in the rate is equal to one expressed as a single unit, and if it is assumed that this quantity can be changed systematically (i.e., is an independent variable), then the dividend (the fraction numerator) of the rate expresses the corresponding rate of change ...

  8. Rule of 72 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_72

    It provides a good approximation for annual compounding, and for compounding at typical rates (from 6% to 10%); the approximations are less accurate at higher interest rates. For continuous compounding, 69 gives accurate results for any rate, since ln(2) is about 69.3%; see derivation below. Since daily compounding is close enough to continuous ...

  9. Amortization calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amortization_calculator

    Converting an annual interest rate (that is to say, annual percentage yield or APY) to the monthly rate is not as simple as dividing by 12; see the formula and discussion in APR. However, if the rate is stated in terms of "APR" and not "annual interest rate", then dividing by 12 is an appropriate means of determining the monthly interest rate.
