VISUALS: Interest Rate and APR Napkins

Let’s focus on the interest rate aspect of paying for goods or services using credit. You’ll look at two resources from Napkin Finances to learn about how interest rate and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) compare. In each section, review the napkin and then use it to answer the questions that follow.

Napkin 1: What's an Interest Rate?

In the next lesson, you’ll learn the equation for compound interest, which is how most loan interest is actually calculated. Until then, we’ll use the more straightforward equation for simple interest, which is

null

Where:

I = interest
P = principal (This may be referred to by other terms such as starting balance or loan amount)
r = the annual interest rate
t = the amount of time in years
