What is the similarity between simple interest and compound interest?
Simple interest is calculated on the principal only. If you have $1,000 and earn 5% interest per year, you will receive $50 at the end of year one. At the end of year two, you will receive another $50. And on it goes. With compound interest, you earn interest on the principal plus any interest you previously earned. Looking again at the previous example, at the end of year one you will still receive $50. At the end of year two, however, you will receive $52.50. Why? Because the 5% is paid on the principal PLUS the interest you previously earned. At the end of 10 years, you'll receive $77.57. After 20 years, $126.35. With simple interest you would still receive only $50.

How do you compare Diminishing Interest to Float Interest?
You have confused between the terms. Simple interest and interest at flat rate is one and the same. The other type of interest is diminishing balance or reducing balance. These are interests associated with loans or finances sought. Well a simple rule of thumb is that usually simple interest rate is about half of rate on reducing balance. For e. g. if rate at reducing balance is 12% then simple interest for the same will be around or just more than 6%

What is the average mortgage payment on 130000?
I don't think there is a such a thing as an average mortgage payment on any given dollar amount. The principal and interest payment depends on several factors besides the loan amount, primarily the interest rate and loan term(length of the loan). To keep it simple, a 130,000 mortgage at 4.5% for 30 years would be $658.69 for your principal and interest payment. If you could afford to do a 15 year loan, at the same interest rate, the monthly payment would be $994.49 and you would save nearly $60,000 in interest. If you change the interest rate, the payment could change significantly also.
Why is the APR considered the most important factor to be mindful in a car loan?

What is the simple interest on 3 500 at 9 ½ percent for 1 ½ years?
You have failed to tell us to what period of time the 9½% interest is applied - is it Yearly, Monthly, Daily (if only - I can but dream). I will guess that it is 9½% APR simple interest. With Simple Interest, the interest is gained only on the capital and not any interest reinvested. → 1 year's interest is 9½% of 3500 = 9.5/100 × 3500 = 332.50 → 1½ years interest = 1½ × 1 year's interest = 1.5 × 332.50 = 498.75
Why does 6.99 APR on your loan when calculated actually mean you will pay 22.88 total interest?
No one advertises an interest rate based on the total interest paid because almost all loans are calculated using a yearly simple interest rate. Your payment is then computed based on paying the loan off on a monthly basis. You can prove this to yourself by dividing the average interest paid by the average balance over a 12-month period.The longer you take to pay a loan off, the greater the total interest you pay for a given interest rate.
