What is the future value of 10000 for an interest rate of 16 percent and 1 annual period of compounding?
With only one year the value is 11600
What is an equivalent rate?
Equivalent RatesThe Equivalent Rates calculation is used to find the nominal annual interest rate compounded n times a year equivalent to a given nominal rate compounded m times per year.Two nominal rates with different compounding frequencies are equivalent if they yield the same amount of interest per year (and hence, at the end of any period of time).Input• nominal annual rate for the given rate• compounding frequency for the given rate• compounding frequency for the equivalent rateResults• equivalent nominal annual rate• equivalent periodic rateExample•A bank offers 14.75 % compounded annually.What would be the equivalent rate compounded monthly?InputGiven nominal annual rate:14.75 %Compounding frequency for given rate:annuallyCompounding frequency for equivalent rate:monthlyResultEquivalent nominal annual rate:13.8377 %Answer: 13.8377%.
When does interest begins compounding in an ordinary annuity?
At the end of the second period
When there is only one compounding period in a ordinary annuity the table factor for future value is always 1?
True
What is better for the consumer simple interest or compounded daily?
I'm thinking of bonds when answering this question. The more frequent the compounding the better it will be for the lender. The less frequent the compounding the better it will be for the borrower. Lets use this example: Interest = 10% Principle = $1000 Compounding A = Annually Compounding B = Quarterly Time period = 2 years A) At the end of the first year $100 in interest would have been made making the balance $1100. At the end of the second year $110 would be earned because of compounding and the balance would be $1210. B) At the end of the first year $103.81 in interest would have been earned with a ending balance of $1103.81. At the end of the second year the interest earned would be $114.59 and the ending balance would be $1218.40. What I showed here is that if you are the one receiving the interest you would prefer daily compounding. When you're paying out interest you would prefer simple interest.
What does the term annual percentage rate mean for a certificate of deposit account?
Annual percentage yield (APY) is a normalized representation of an interest rate, based on a compounding period of one year

What would be the value of one hundred dollars with a five percent compound interest after two years?
That depends on how often it is compounded. For annual compounding, you have $100 * (1 + 5%)2 = $100 * (1.05)2 = $100*1.1025 = $110.25This works because at the end of the first compounding period (year), you've earned interest on the amount at the beginning of the compounding period. At the end of the first year, you have $105.00, and the same at the beginning of the second year. At the end of the second compounding period, you have earned 5%interest on the $105.00 so it is $105 * (1.05) = $100*(1.05)*(1.05) or $100 * 1.052.Compounding more often, will yield a higher number, but not much over a 2 year period. Compounding continuously, for example is $100 * e(2*.05) = $100 * e(.1)= $100 * e(.1) = $100 * 1.10517 = $110.52 (27 cents more).Compounding daily will be close to the continuous function, and compounding monthly or quarterly will be between $110.25 and $110.52

What is the formula to find an APY?
APY = (1+ period rate)# of period - 1 Where period rate = APR / # of compounding periods in a year
How much would 300 invested at 4 percent interest compounded monthly be worth after 8 years?
The compound interest formula is FV = P(1+i)^n where FV = Future Value P = Principal i = interest rate per compounding period n = number of compounding periods. Here you will need to calculate i by dividing the nominal annual interest rate by the number of compounding periods per year (that is, i = 4%/12). Also, if the money is invested for 8 years and compounds each month, there will be 8*12 compounding periods. Just plug the numbers into the formula. You can do it!
What is the interest on 1200 invested for 2 years in an account that earns 5 percent interest per year?
The answer, assuming compounding once per year and using generic monetary units (MUs), is MU123. In the first year, MU1,200 earning 5% generates MU60 of interest. The MU60 earned the first year is added to the original MU1,200, allowing us to earn interest on MU1,260 in the second year. MU1,260 earning 5% generates MU63. So, MU60 + MU63 is equal to MU123. The answers will be different assuming different compounding periods as follows: Compounding Period Two Years of Interest No compounding MU120.00 Yearly compounding MU123.00 Six-month compounding MU124.58 Quarterly compounding MU125.38 Monthly compounding MU125.93 Daily compounding MU126.20 Continuous compounding MU126.21

annual

Yearly
What bank has the highest rate offered on a certificate of deposit?
Your question needs clarification. What period CD? Also, banks change their rates frequently so it is difficult to be sure who has the highest rate right now. Sallie Mae may have highest rate (APY Annual Percentage Yield) on a one year CD right now.
