(Duration: Week 1)

Learning Module – Business Mathematics : Specialized Subject (Q2:week 1-5)
Example 1:
A salesman sells a used car for Php 95,000. His commission rate is 4%.
What will be his commission for the sale?
Solution:
Commission = Amount sold x rate of commission
= 95,000 x 0.04
= 3,800
Example 2:
Maria, a computer salesperson is paid a retainer’s fee of Php 5,350 per
week, plus a commission of 8% of the profits made by the company on
computers that she sells. How much does she earn in a week if Php 15,000
profit was generated by her sake?
Solution:
Commission = Amount sold x rate of commission
= 15,000 x 0.08
= 1,200
Example:
Juan works as a salesman in an electronic shop. He earns a weekly
salary of Php 4,250 plus a 3% commission on sales over Php 20,000 per
week. If Juan’s sales in one week reaches Php 35,000, what are his gross pay
for the week?
Solution:
Commission = (amount sold – quota) x rate of commission
= (35,000 – 20,000) x 0.03
= 450

Sonia works as a salesperson. She earns 5% commission on the first
Php 10,000 of sales, and 8% on any sale above Php 10,000 for the week.
How much did Sonia earn in commission in a week if her sales reaches Php
25,000.?

SIMPLE INTEREST
I = Prt
Where:
I – simple interest earned
P – principal
r – interest rate
t – time
Example:
Suppose an investment of Php 10,000 for 5 years earns 7% simple
interest. Find the simple interest earned.
Solution:
I = Prt
= (10,000)(0.07)(5)
= 3,500
Solution:
I = Prt
We then derived the formula to find interest rate (r)

A = P(1+rt)
Where:
A – future or maturity value
P – principal
r – interest rate
t – time
Example:
Find the maturity value for a loan of Php 25,000 to be repaid in 8 months
with interest rate of 4.3%.
Solution:
A = P(1+rt)

interest.
Maria wants to borrow Php 8,000 from their credit cooperative. She

Therefore, P + 4% of P = P + (0.04)P
P = P(1+.04)
P = P(1.04)
Generalizing the argument in the above example, the total amount on deposit
in t years which is the compound amount is:
𝐴 = 𝑃(1 + 𝑟)𝑡
Interest can be compounded more than once per year. Common periods
include semiannually (two periods per year), quarterly (four periods per
year), monthly (twelve periods per year), or daily (usually 365 days per year).
COMPOUND INTEREST
𝐴 = 𝑃(1 + 𝑖)𝑛
𝑟
Where 𝑖 = 𝑚 and 𝑛 = 𝑚𝑡
Example:
Suppose Php 10,000 is deposited for 6 years in an account paying 4.5%
per year compounded annually.
a. Find the compound amount.
b. Find the amount of interest earned.
Solution:

𝑃 = 10,000, 𝑖 = and 𝑛 = 6(1)

𝐴 = 𝑃(1 + 𝑖)𝑛
𝐴 = 10,000 (1 + 0.045)6
𝐴 = 10,000(1.045)6
𝐴 = 13,022.60
Amount of interest = 13,022.60 – 10,000 = 3,022.60

Find the amount of interest earned by a deposit of Php 5,500 for 6.5
years at 5.25% compounded quarterly.
Solution:
Interest compounded quarterly is compounded 4 times a year. In 6.5
years, there are (6.5)(4)=26 periods. Thus, n = 26. Interest of 5.25% per
5.25% 0.0525
year is per quarter, so 𝑖 = . Now use the formula for compound

𝐴 = 5,500(1 + 0.013125)26
𝐴 = 5,500(1.403585384)

ORDINARY ANNUITIES
Example:
To prepare for the college education of their newly born child, the
parents decided to make semiannual payment of Php 50,000 for the next 18
years. If interest is charged 8% compounded semiannually, how much will
they have for the education of their child when the child enters college after
18 years?
Solution:
We are given the periodic semiannually payment 𝑅 = 𝑃ℎ𝑝50,000.
Interest compounded semiannually is compounded 2 times a year. In 18
years, there are (18)(2) = 36 periods. Thus, 𝑛 = 36. Interest of 8% per year
8% 0.08
is semiannually, so 𝑖 = = 0.04. We want to find the value of the
2 2
semiannual payments in 18 years’ time, which is the accumulated values 𝑆.
