  3. Opening Problem

  4. Section 13A - Foreign Exchange Vocabulary: • Currency – money • Exchange Rate – establishes a relationship between the value of currencies. These are constantly changing. • Conversion – exchanging/converting currencies. • Commission – amount/percentage made by exchanging agency.

  5. Example 1 A bank exchanges 1 British pound (GBP) for 1.9 Australian dollars (AUD). Convert: a) 40 GBP to AUD b) 500 AUD to GBP

  6. Example 2 The table alongside shows the transfer rates between US dollars (USD) and Swiss francs (CHF), and British pounds (GBP). • Write down the exchange rate from: • CHF to USD • USD to CHF • Convert: • 3000 USD to GBP • 10 000 francs to pounds

  7. Commission • Banks and other currency traders earn a commission for exchanging currency. • commission rate between 0.5% to 3% • a ‘flat fee’ • no commission, but worse exchange rates

  8. You live in the U.S. - this table shows the value of the USD in other currencies:

  9. Example 3 Use the currency conversion table to perform the following: • Convert 4000 USD into Euros. • How much does it cost in US dollars to buy 5000 yen? • How many US dollars can you buy for 2000 Swedish kronor?

  10. Example 4 A bank changes US dollars to other currency at a fixed commission of 1.5%. Max wishes to convert $200 US to baht where $1 US buys 40.23 Thai baht. • What commission is charged? • What does the customer receive?

  11. Example 5 A currency exchange service exchanges 1 euro for Japanese yen with the buy rate 135.69, and sell rate 132.08. Cedric wishes to exchange 800 Euros for yen. • How many yen will he receive? • If the yen in a were exchanged immediately back to Euros, how many Euros would they be worth? • What is the resultant commission on the double transaction? The service buys yen at 135.69 The service sells yen at 132.08

  12. Section 13B – Simple Interest BrainPop.comInterest • Vocabulary: • Borrower • Lender • Principal/Capital – amount borrowed. • Interest • -Simple Interest • -Compound Interest

  13. Simple Interest C = capital r = simple interest rate / per year / decimal n = number of time periods (in years) I = interest

  14. Example 6 Calculate the simple interest on a loan of $8000 at a rate of 7% p.a. over 18 months.

  15. Example 7 How much money has been borrowed if the flat rate of interest is 8% p.a. and the simple interest owed after 4 years is $1600?

  16. Example 8 What flat rate of interest does a bank need to charge so that €5000 will earn €900 simple interest in 18 months?

  17. Example 9 How long will it take $2000 invested at a flat rate of 12.5% p.a. to amount to $3000?

  18. Calculating Repayment • Repayments are often made in regular payments over the length of the loan. • These may be weekly, fortnightly, monthly or another period of time.

  19. Calculating Repayment • Calculate the interest • Calculate the total amount to be repaid (capital + interest) • Calculate the total number of payments • Determine the amount of a regular payment

  20. Example 10 Calculate the monthly repayments on a loan of $23 000 at 8% p.a. flat rate over 6 years.
