The mathematics of business and finance is based on the time value of money.
The analysis and evaluation of the factors that will affect. the economic success
of any engineering project is the very essence of Engineering Economy. The
best used of borrowed capital is the fundamental concept behind of
Investments,
Interest is a fee paid for the use of money. Interest can be smple or
Compound. In simple interest , the interest is based on the prinapal only
