365 days for ordinary year and 366 days for a leap year.
• 1 interest period = 365 or 366 days.
Other terms:

SIMPLE INTEREST
• FORMULAS FOR SIMPLE INTEREST
• 𝐼 = 𝑃𝑟𝑡
• 𝐹 =𝑃+𝐼
• 𝐹 = 𝑃 + 𝑃𝑟𝑡
• 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑡 = 1 𝑎𝑓𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟 , 𝐹 = 𝑃 (1 + 𝑟)
• Where: 𝐼 = interest
• 𝑃 = principal
• 𝑛 = number of interest periods
• 𝑖 = rate of interest in decimal
• 𝐹 = total amount
SAMPLE PROBLEMS

1. A man borrowed 𝑃2,000 from a bank and promise to pay the amount in
one year. He received only the amount of 𝑃1,920 after the bank collected
an advance interest of 𝑃80.00. What was the rate of discount and the
rate of interest that the bank collected in advance?
2. A bank charges 12% simple interest on a 𝑃300.00 loan. How much will
be repaired if the load is paid back in one lump sum after three years?
3. A deposit of 𝑃110,000 was made for 31 days. The net interest after
deducting 20% withholding tax is 𝑃890.36. Find the rate of return
annually.
4. 𝑃5,000 is borrowed for 75 days at 16% per annum simple interest. How
much will be due at the end of 75 days?
