stlaibrowne: Alternatively, Mansard insurance has some annuity plans that are very good. But they pay interest of between 5-6% depending on the current MPR. The MPR is currently 13%. The CBN fixes it from time to time. So, it changes. |

walexy30:Gracias I have contacted the customer line and I am informed of a product that I can work with. I can start the investment with 10k and hence contribute monthly which I can withdraw at any particular time |

walexy30: The correct answer is: 20 years total savings*interest rate (2000*12*20)(1+12/100) (480000)(1,12) 537600 |

MPSA:This solution is very wrong. You've simply accumulated the total savings and computed a single interest on it at the end of the 20 years period using Amount = P(total) + [P(total)xRate/100]. The given rate(R) is annual and not for 20 years. This is wrong sir! Check my solution pls. This is a complex form of a Compound Interest question. (Reason: You need to keep on adding the monthly savings he makes per month.) The mistake from many is to assume a one-time principal. For clarity, at the end of the first year, the Principal = #2000 x 12 = #24000. 12% interest on this gives 24000 x 0.12 = 2880. At the end of the 2nd year, the New Principal = (Principal of year 1) + (Savings/principal of year 2) + Interest from year 1 = 24000 +24000 +2880 = 50880. Interest from year 2 = 50880 x 0.12 = 6105.6. At the end of year 3, the New Principal = (year 1 principal) + (year 2 principal) + (year 3 principal) + (Interest from year 2) = 24000 + 24000 + 24000 + 6105.6 = 78105.6. and on and on like that. As a mathematics student, I computed an analytical equation for this 'progressive compound interest' problem thus. Amt=yp*(n+(n*x)+((n-1)*x^2)+((n-2)*x^3)+((n-3)*x^4)+((n-4)*x^5)+((n-5)*x^6)+((n-6)*x^7)+((n-7)*x^cool+((n-cool*x^9)+((n-9)*x^10)+((n-10)*x^11)+((n-11)*x^12)+((n-12)*x^13)+((n-13)*x^14)+((n-14)*x^15)+((n-15)*x^16)+((n-16)*x^17)+((n-17)*x^18)+((n-18)*x^19)+(x^20)) yp = yearly savings/principal = #24000, n = number of years = 20, x = interest rate per annum = 12% = 0.12, Amt = Amount at the end of 20 years Amt = # 545,010. 1 Like |

itopicman: I don't understand why you add the interest of the first year on second year. Total savings on 1rst year=24000 & total interest is: 24000*0,12=2880 Total amount p/a: total savings+total interest 24000+2880 26880 For second year is: Total savings+total interest Total savings=2000*24=48000 Total interest=48000*0,12=5760 .:total amount for 2nd year is: =48000+5760 =53760 the total amount of 20 year is: Total savings+total interest Total savings=2000*12*20=480000 Total interest=480000*0.12=57600 .:total amount+total interest 480000+57600 537600 Don't apply arithmatic formula to get the answer, because interest rates are different. |

MPSA: You need to understand that this is a Progressive compound interest problem. For the convectional compound interest problem, the man would have simply saved for one year then the bank will compound his interest to give a total amount expressed as Amount = P x [1 + R/100]^n. where P=principal (savings for one year) R=interest rate n=number of year I term this problem 'progressive compound interest' because the man keeps on saving every month for the 20 year period. Hence, I modified the convectional compound interest formular above to come up with the model below: Amount=YP*(n+(n*R)+((n-1)*R^2)+((n-2)*R^3)+((n-3)*R^4)+((n-4)*R^5)+((n-5)*R^6)+((n-6)*R^7)+((n-7)*R^+((n-l*R^9)+((n-9)*R^10)+((n-10)*R^11)+((n-11)*R^12)+((n-12)*R^13)+((n-13)*R^14)+((n-14)*R^15)+((n-15)*R^16)+((n-16)*R^17)+((n-17)*R^18)+((n-18)*R^19)+(R^20)) where YP=principal (yearly savings) R=interest rate n=number of year. Actually, this is a mathematical model that will perfectly compute the total amount for anyone's savings with any bank at any yearly saving(YP) at a particular interest rate(R) at the end of some number of years(n). A Bank should PAY ME FOR THIS MATHEMATICAL MODEL but since this is a knowledge forum, I decided to upload it at zero cost. Any one, especially walexy30, should try this model for any set problem at his set yearly savings, at a specific interest rate, and for any desired number of years, it's only then that you'll understand the potency of this model. You might need a computer program to run this model. Just Just 5 to 6 lines of code will compute ypor money instaed of wasting time solving year by year by hand. Imagine how long and strenuous this could be. My model will do it in few seconds. This is the last I should post on this topic, I hope to hear from the OP(walexy30). 1 Like |

I'm late but I can't help it Here's my understanding N2,000*12 months= 24,000 a year 24,000*12%=2,880 interest rate per year Then 24,000 + 2,880= 26,880 ( so he has this amount yearly in his saving account) So for 20 years 26,880*20= N537, 600 |
