Figuring out the issue:
• Chief sum (P) = R1 500
• Financing cost (R) = 6.57% each year
• Time (T) = 16 months
Recipe for Straightforward Interest:
• Basic Interest (SI) = (P * R * T)/100
Computations:
1. Convert months to years: 16 months = 16/12 = 4/3 years
3. Calculate the equilibrium: Equilibrium = Head + Straightforward
Interest = 1500 + 131.40 = R1631.40
Reply:
• The equilibrium in the record 16 months after the fact is R1 631.40.
Subsequently, the right choice is c. R1 631.40.

Assessment 1
To figure out measure of opportunity its expectation for a hypothesis to
turn into different times its one of a kind worth with gather interest, we
use oneself duplicating profits recipe:
A=P(1+rn)ntA = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}A=P(1+nr)nt
Where:
• AAA is the last total
• PPP is the head (starting aggregate)
• rrr is the yearly credit cost (as a decimal)
• nnn is the times the interest is amassed every year
• ttt is the amount of years
Given:
• A=4PA = 4PA=4P (considering the way that the aggregate turns
into various times the head)
