Trang 2 The concept of interest being charged is not new having been
traced as far back as 1900 B.C. in Babylon
Except when made illegal because of religious objections
(1200‐1500 A.D.) interest has been a normal part of business
in the Western economies
Return or return on investment (ROI) may include all types
returns: interest on a savings account at the bank; interest on
investments such as certificates of deposit; dividends from
the ownership of stock; profit from selling stock; etc

Time value of money places all financial events at a

Return on Investment
ROI is an important benchmark used by management to
determine if changes (investments) are producing the desired
results.
ROI determination and how it is used for analysis is important y p
to all areas of an organization that employs team‐based
decision making. Examples include:
Making make vs. buy decisions must consider return
implications of investing in equipment to make components
Making investment decision on individual products by
comparing ROI rather than profit
8
Return on Investment
ROI can be thought of as the financial efficiency of the
organization. Efficiency is the measure of output over input:

Trang 4 ROI can be determined using income before or after taxes
Since taxes may represent a significant cost to the
organization, after‐tax income is frequently used
The affect of inflation should be included in ROI calculations
The affect of inflation should be included in ROI calculations
since the income associated with the investment will occur
over time. Economic periods of high inflation can significantly
affect ROI
Economic conditions also affect the prevailing interest rate.
Assuming the organization is borrowing funds to finance an
investment, interest rates will also significantly affect ROI.

a series of cash flows

Time Value of Money
The value of a dollar today is different from the value of a
dollar in the future. Value of the dollar over time is affect by:
Interest paid on borrowed money
Interest received on money loaned
Interest received on money loaned.
Interest can be classified as:
Simple – applied to the principle amount only
Compound – applied to principle and interest
Continuous Compounding – similar to compound interest
except the number of time periods = infinity
15
Trang 6 Simple Interest is paid on the amount invested or charged on
the amount loaned only.
Interest is not applied to accumulated interest. Rarely used

Remember mathematical priorities require that you multiple
before adding. For (1+6x0.05), first multiply 6 by 0.05, then add 1.
Compound Interest
Compound interest is paid on the amount invested and the
accumulated interest Ö interest on interest.
Compound interest is an exponential function of interest
over time.
Compounding period can be daily, monthly, quarterly,
annually or any other period of time.
Compound interest is the basis for engineering economic
analysis and will be used through‐out IET 350 unless
otherwise indicated

Interest has increased $80.19 compared to simple interest. This amount
is the interest paid on the accumulated interest Ö interest on interest.
Single Payments
Single payment calculations cover situations where a single
amount of money is borrowed or invested for some period of
time with interest compounded
Using the compound interest formula, if three of the four g p ,
factors are known, the fourth factor can be determined. For
example:
The amount to be invested today (P) can be found for a
desired future amount (F) for a given interest and time

Nominal interest – interest rate without the effect of
interest compounding
Effective interest – interest rate including the effect of
interest compounding.

Continuous compounding is not typically used for
engineering economic analysis. It is used for savings accounts
and other investment areas
The number of continuous compounding periods is infinity.p g p y
