Saving and investing basics

Saving and Investing Basics Reasons money is borrowed by the

following: Individuals: to purchase large ticket

items such as homes and cars Businesses: to operate or expand their

business; purchase a building, replace old equipment or offering new products

Government: to improve or expand transportation, schools or other public services

Saving and Investing Basics

What is saving? Putting away money for future use Where?

What is investing? Using savings to earn more money for

future financial security Where?

Saving and Investing Basics

Saving influences on economic activity makes more money available to be used

by individuals, businesses and government

When the borrowed money is spent, the demand for goods and services increases which creates more jobs and spending for workers

Saving and Investing Basics continued

Main goals of savers and investors include making available immediate income and long-term growth

Saving and Investing Basics continued

Growth of savings is interest earned when other borrow your money Simple interest is the amount of $$

paid to saver on the amount deposited for a period of time

Compound interest is the amount of $$ paid to saver on the amount deposited AND interest previously earned for a period of time

Saving and Investing Basics continued

Impact of compound frequency on savings growth rate: the more times the interest is compounded the more growth in savings

How is simple interest calculated?

I = P*R*T

P = Principal (initial amount you borrow or deposit)

R= RateT = TimeI = Interest Rate

How is compound interest calculated?

A=P(1+r/n)nt

A = AmountP = Principal (initial amt. you borrow

or deposit)r = Annual rate of interestn = Number of times interest is

compoundedt = time in years

Savings Growth

Simple interest$1,000 at 10%

Year 1: $1,000 * .10 = $100

$1,000 + $100 = $1,100

Year 2:

$1,000 * .10 = $100$1,100 + $100 =

$1,200What would the

value be at the end of year 3?

Compound interest$1,000 at 10%

Year 1: $1,000 * .10 = $100

$1,000 + $100 = $1,100

Year 2:

$1,100 * .10 = $110$1,100 + $110 =

$1,210What would the value

be at the end of year 3?

Simple Interest

$1,000 * .10 = $100$1,200 + $100 =

$1,300

Compound Interest

$1,210 * .10 = $121$1,210 + $121 =

$1,331

Savings Growth End of 3 Years Simple Interest I = P*R*T

1,000*.10*3 = 3001,000 + 300 =

$1,300

Compound InterestA=P(1+r/n)nt

1,000(1+.1/1)1*3

1,000(1.1)3 = $1,331

Savings Growth

Calculate simple interest on $5,000 after 5 years at 10% interest

Calculate compound interest on $5,000 after 5 years compounded monthly at 10% interest

DO THE MATH BEFORE CONTINUING….

SERIOUSLY, DO THE MATH BEFORE CONTINUING…..

REMEMBER: THE PERSON DOING THE WORK IS DOING THE LEARNING AND I EXPECT YOU TO LEARN

Savings Growth

Simple interest $5,000*.10*5 = $2,500

$5,000 + $2,500 = $7,500

Compound interest $5,000(1+.1/12)5*12

=

$8,226.55

Saving and investing options

Saving Options – Savings Plans

Savings account: usually allows a low or zero balance, deposit or withdrawals (without penalties) anytime and pays low interest rate.

Certificates of deposit (CDs): a minimum deposit remains for a set period of time; penalty is withdrawn early

Money market account: a minimum deposit, interest earned based on gov’t and corp securities; pays slightly higher interest than savings account

Selecting Stock

Factors that could influence investors in selecting stock: Economic▪ Inflation▪ Interest rates▪ Consumer spending▪ Employment

Company▪ Dividend yield: dividend per share/mkt price

per sh▪ Price-earnings ratio: stock price/earnings per

share

Yield Calculations

Yield is usually calculated in the following way:current value – original value = yield

original value Current value=closing price for the day Original price=price paid for stock Yield=Interest earned For example: a stock is bought at $40 and

valued at $43:$43 – $40

$40 yield = 7.5%

Yield Calculations

Dividends also may be added to the calculation.

For example: a stock is bought at $40 and sold at $43, but also earned a $2 dividend during that time:

$43 + $2 – $40 $40

yield = 12.5%

Price/Earnings Ratio

Stock price/Earnings per share = P/E ratio A measure of market valuation

(capitalization) Affected by: growth rate of the company,

expectations of future growth rate, earnings, and other risk factors

Should use to compare companies within the same industry

Bond Investments

What is a bond? A promissory note to pay back a specified

amount of money at a stated rate on a specific date; issued to lend funds to the organization selling the bond.

Main Categories of Bonds Government bonds▪ Municipal bonds: issued by local and state gov’ts for

public service projects▪ U.S. savings bonds: Series EE, HH and I bonds▪ Treasury bills (91 days to 1 year) and notes (1 to 10

years) Corporate bonds: loaning money to a company

Bond investments

Lenders versus owners as it relates to investing in a company’s stocks and bonds Bonds = lender Stocks=owner

How does stated interest rate impact the value of a bond? Stated interest rate determines the price

investors want to pay for a bond

Bond investments

Bond sold at par value Ex. A bond’s stated interest rate is 5%

and the current market rate is 5%. Bond would be sold at par (100) A $10,000 bond would sell for $10,000

Bond investments

Bond sold at a premium Ex. A 10 year bond sells in 2005 for

$10,000 with a stated interest rate of 5% In 2007, the market interest rate is 3% Because your bond is paying a higher

interest rate than the market rate, you could sell you bond for more than the $10,000 face value (102) in order to realize a yield of 3%

A $10,000 bond would sell for $10,200

Bond investments

Bond sold at a discount Ex. A 10 year bond sells in 2005 for

$10,000 with a stated interest rate of 5% In 2007, the market interest rate is 7% Because your bond is paying a lower

interest rate than the market rate, a buyer would be willing to pay less than face value (98) in order to realize a yield of 7%

A $10,000 bond would sell for $9,800

Comparing bond investments

Current yield of a bond = Dollar amount of annual interest

income/current market valueEx. Annual interest income = $80

Current Market Value = $998$80/$998 = 8%• This bond is being sold at a discount

because the current market value is less than par (1000).
