2. Calculate bank discount and proceeds for simple discount notes.

3. Calculate and compare the interest, maturity value, proceeds, and effective rate of a simple interest note with a simple discount note.

4. Explain and calculate the effective rate for a Treasury bill.LU 17-2: Finding the Face Value, Rate, and Time for a Simple Interest Note and a Simple Discount Note

1. Find the face value (principal), rate, and time of a simple interest note.

SIMPLE DISCOUNT NOTE TERMINOLOGY

17-5

Simple Discount Note -- A note in which the loan interest is deducted in advance.

Bank Discount -- The interest that banks deduct in advance.

Bank Discount Rate -- The percent of interest.

Proceeds -- The amount the borrower receives after the bank deducts its discount from the loan’s maturity value.

Maturity Value – The total amount due at the end of the loan (the sum of the face value, or principal, and interest).

SIMPLE DISCOUNT NOTE

Pete Runnels has a choice of two different notes that both have a face value (principal) of $14,000 for 60 days. One note has a simple interest rate of 8%, while the other note has a simple discount rate of 8%. For each type of note, calculate (a) interest owed, (b) maturity value, (c) proceeds, and (d) effective rate:

Terms of Purchase: 28 days (4 weeks), 91 days (13 weeks), or 1 Yr.

Example: If you buy a $10,000, 13-week Treasury bill at 8%, how much will you pay, and what is the effective rate?

$10,000 x .08 x

= $200

Cost = $10,000 -- $200 = $9,800

Effective rate = $200 = 8.16% $9,800 x 13

Purchase Price (proceeds) of a Treasury Bill = The value of the Treasury bill - the discount.

A Treasury bill is a loan to the federal government

INTEREST NOTEMaturity Value Formula (Chapter 16)

M = P(1 + RT)Averi Walker paid off a 150-day note at 6% with a single payment, also known as a balloon payment, of $2,250. Find the face value (P) and interest (I) for the simple interest note.

DISCOUNT NOTEAveri Walker borrowed $2,250 at 6% for 150-days to pay off a personal loan. Find the proceeds and interest for the simple discount note.

17-14

Pr = M(1 – DT)

Pr= $2,550 [1 - .06 (150/360)]

Pr = $2,550 (1 - .025)

Pr = $2,486.25 (proceeds)

B = M - Pr

B = $2,550 – $2,486.25B = $63.75 (bank discount)

Mallori Rouse needs $3,000 to drywall her master bedroom. Find the face value of a simple discount note that will provide her with $3,000 at 6.5 % for 85 days.

M = $3,000.00 (1 - .065 x 85/360)

DISCOUNTING AN INTEREST-BEARING

NOTE BEFORE MATURITY

17-18

Step 1. Calculate the interest and maturity value.

Step 2. Calculate the discount period (time the bank holds note).

Step 3. Calculate the bank discount.

Step 4. Calculate the proceeds.

What are Roger’s interest and maturity value?

MV = $2,000 + $61.67 = $2,061.67

$2,061.67 x .05 x 31 = $8.80 360

$2,061.67 – $8.80 = $2,052.87
