单词 | simple interest |
释义 | simple interest The system by which repayment of a loan after n periods requires payment of a sum equal to the principal plus n times the interest payable for a single period. If the principal is P and the interest rate per period is r, at the end of n periods payment of P(1 + nr) is required. As n increases, the proportional rate of return to the lender goes down, as the proportional return for the n + 1th period is rP/[(1 + nr)P], which is a decreasing function of n. Simple interest is very rarely used, except for loans of very short duration where arithmetic simplicity may be felt to outweigh this defect. |
