Have you always wanted to be able to do compound interest problems in your head? Probably not, but it's a very useful skill to have because it gives you a lightning fast benchmark to determine how good (or not so good) a potential investment is likely to be.
The rule says that to find the number of years required to double your money at a given interest rate, you just divide the interest rate into 72. For example, if you want to know how long it will take to double your money at eight percent interest, divide 8 into 72 and get 9 years.
Yes, it is a useful tool and is reasonably accurate.
The answer is 418.76 pounds.
Ok. This is a 'fairly' simple growth question. The formula I'm using is for compound growth which I'm sure you've heard of, as you put this question in the right section. (Compound growth is used most in finance). This is how the formula looks:
FV = PV ( 1+i )^n
Where FV is future value (his future weight which is what you want). 'i' is the growth rate. 3% growth means i will be 0.03. And n is the number of years he'll grow over, which is 60-35 = 25 years old. For this question the formula could be worded as:
Weight, multiplied by ((1+percentage growth) to the power of number of years he'll be growing).
= 200*(1.03^25)
The answer is 418.76 pounds.
To help you understand. If you're growing by 3 percent a year. then next year you will be 1.03 multiplied by the weight you are now. This would be 200 * 1.03
His weight in two years would be 200 * 1.03 (the weight after the first year) which will then grow by 1.03, so the above bit needs to be multiplied by another 1.03. So in two years he'll be 200*1.03*1.03 or 200*1.03^2. You'll notice the power is simply the number of years he's been growing. After three years would be 200*1.03^3.
So it ends up being 200* (1.03 to the power of 25)
Good luck with any other questions.
It is a problem in a matter of law.
You should turn to your laywer for professional advice.
I really believe that you are making the complicated business system into a setup that is easy and mainly efficient. I praise your work and really think that you are doing great work.
ja naja geht auf jedenfall aber GeileZone . com ist die heitige offenbarung für mich
Traditional financing means your payments are the same every month for the life of the loan, e.g., $500.
In balloon financing, your payments will be lower, except at the end; this will be several times higher. In such an arrangement, your payment may be $350, but your final balloon payment might be $7000.
The latter type of financing is what trips up people, as they're able to make the smaller monthly payments at least until something happens – they lose their job, the economy turns sour, they have huge medical expenses, etc. Then they find themselves unable to make that balloon payment.
When exploring your options, have you crunched your numbers to be able to afford that car? (This is an important step in preparing for a big-ticked purchase.) Next, do you have enough money saved to be able to cover that balloon payment?
get a team of people who have money to finance this deal and split the profits. Hard money lenders will lend up to 65% of the appraised value. However, I worked with some that based the loan on the property itself as I am very sharp into finding good deals and have built a trusting relationship with them.
You could also control the property by having a 6 month purchase option contract on that property and then assign your rights to a retail buyer or other investor.
Trust me, if you can find deals like that, finding the money is easy.

A "finance charge" is the fee you pay the bank for the convenience of them letting you borrow money. Some banks calculate your finance charge based upon your average daily balance within the month, while some calculate based on your balance at the time your invoice closes.
When you go about signing up for a credit card, the details will let you know what type of APR you'll be getting. With it being your first credit card, you're likely to get an APR around 20%. That means, the interest you'll be charged YEARLY is 20%. To find what you'd be charged monthly, simply divide it by 12; it would end up being 1.67% per month.
As an example, if your balance was $100, your finance charge would be $1.67. That sounds cheap, but just remember, it adds up.
Thank you for the useful information.
I’ve seen directors of companies just agree blindly to the numbers, oh they may ask a few questions to seem educated but on the whole the finance team are in charge.
I’ve also seen the finance team massage the numbers to make them fit.
13dankster, everything he talks about are basic principles taught in first-year business school. How can “upper management” not already know all of this??? What type of business are you in where the so-called “upper management” is so uneducated?
Yes, 13dankster, I AM a genius. You, obviously, are not. Look, if you never went to college and have a low IQ, then I’m sure his book might be helpful to you. For a financial illiterate, he can help you understand cash-flow management. Dr. Seus is very useful for 5 year old children too. Every book has its right audience and its natural target market. For guys like you, maybe his book is actually helpful, but for the rest of us this is really basic stuff.
We place a higher value on not losing money than on gaining it
Really helpful tips…. the way he present, even better;-)
You need to find a hiring manager that will take a chance on you. Avoid head hunters or recruiters. They are looking for easy, no-brainer, matches. They are usually a step up from used car salesmen in my opinion.
You may need to take a cut in pay to make this happen. I made a career change in IT from one technology to another and I was able to find a manager that took a chance on me, but I had to take a 20% cut in pay. At the time, I had no mortgage or kids and I was able to do it without it seriously impacting my lifestyle.
Good luck.
Auto finance is what I do for a living and this is very strange.
I would have to say since they have made no effort to take the car they must think that it's not worth the time and money to take it back.
This leaves you hanging though, without a lien release you can never have a free and clear title so while you can tag and drive the vehicle you can not sell it.
I would call them if I were you and see if you can work something out.
Good luck.
I don't mean to sound rude, but take a hint. If the finance companies want a HUGE down payment it's because they think either you are a high risk or with your current bills, cannot afford the payments on the car with so little money down. Apparently Ford finance thinks you can only afford the payments if they were based on $3-4k down. That's usually a big hint you would be living beyond your means. If you don't have much money to put down on any new car, it's a sign you can't afford the vehicle. If you have to finance your life away for something, you simply can't afford it.
excellent work!
I've been in Finance for so long that I've decided that I wanted to do a different degree that was along the lines of my future goals… Law. I did my BBA in Legal Studies. I was a Finance major at first. I will suggest that you stick with the Finance Major vs the Business Administration. I mean if you think about what exactly is the B.A. offering you when the bottom line of the degree is in Business Administration? To have a specialty gives you a 'know-how' that makes you more adept in taking on positions that offer stellar pay as Finance and Accounting is known for. Each person is different in terms of what they want to do with their future goals. I normally see students minor in Business Administration if their Undergraduate Degree is in a totally different realm. This is only to signal to the employer that you are versatile and have business skills. If you are a business student I suggest Finance if this is what you want. Finance is definitely interesting and keeps you on the toes not just in the sense of performing statistical analysis but also conducting market and financial research including technical analysis which keeps you in the loop of world news as much as national news. You begin to witness the chain in global commerce & media and how it effects one another and inevitably effects the market as well as consumers far and near.
Another point that comes to mind is the institution that is granting the Finance degree. What is their reputation in the Finance Department? Are they first class? Are they top-rated? Usually the "glamourous pay but slave to your job" are firms off of W-Street which hit Ivy league schools to join their Associate or Summer programs. These programs, once selected ..highly selective, gear you up for positions such as equity or fixed-income analysts. Again, the pay is here, the perks are there, but you get no life. If you're looking to have that lifestyle then ensure your alma-matter can deliver. Your grades will obviously have to stand on its own and well .. if you have connections then use them.
If you want something more exciting in Business then go for Marketing. I'm leaning to the Marketing aspect in my MBA program which will play instrumental in my Entertainment Law (Law, Marketing, Finance (Budgeting)).
Good luck with everything.
P.S. I suggest you take a few finance classes (required and as an elective) before you decide.
what is wrong with a pen and paper works real great if the electric goes off!!!
Set up a basic credit criteria, in which based on your clients credit score or certain qualifying options that you create, you base your credit line. Ok to make this easier, you could for example use a 90% credit line for clients whose credit score (or other certain criteria because companies sometimes don't look for a certain score but more or less other items they deem necessary) is 800 or more and it goes down from there…so as if a new client you have has a 500 score you could issue them only a 10% financing line. Second, after you set your standards, go ahead and work out your governing contracts, what is your interest rate (check with other similar companies in the field)? What is your late fee and when are payments due..how about penalties? Boy, that's enough for now huh!
You obviously haven’t read the book. If you think every “upper management” person understands finance you are a newbie in the business world. There are dozens of fortune 100 companies that hire Joe to teach their management teams these principles so apparently there is a need for it.
good vid. insightful.
id bang her, too.

Are you working with a Realtor? Ask them to suggest someone.
If not, Find a Mortgage Broker/Banker who can shop the market for you and find an investor who will finance you.
If you cant find anyone, I hope you made the offer contingent on you finding financing, if not, you are out of your earnest money when you back out.
Good Luck!
As “Michael Gerber” would say: “Entreprenuers become Business Owners, because they are successful at what they do”… this doesn’t always mean they went to business school first…
My staff and I are reminded daily (as QuickBooks Consultants) of such the truth and many Wise and Successful Entreprenuers, struck out on the own, with courage and bravery – not business education.
I’m not a newbie in the business world. Only idiots that don’t understand the basics of cash-flow management, perhaps like you 13Dankster, are newbies. Did YOU even go to university?? How could anybody hold any position in the business world without knowing these simple principles? Sorry pal, but your Community College business diploma doesn’t cut it…
You'll need a good solid business plan and have figures and answers to back it up. Plus some money out of your own pocket.
OK Einstein. Clearly you are a freaking genius. Sorry to ever insinuate that this type of information could be valuable to someone. The fact is that there are thousands of UPPER MANAGEMENT personnel across the world that continue to buy this book and schedule the authors for seminars. Clearly they should be contacting you so they can learn from the greatest gift to finance ever known with your state college bachelors degree.
I’ve read Joe’s book and it has dramatically helped our business. His seminars are as good as gold for upper management types who are busy but need to understand the basics of finance. Good stuff.
