1. Present Worth (or Present Value)
Definition:
Present Worth (PW) is the current value of a future sum of money or stream of cash flows given a
specified rate of return (discount rate).
Key Formula:
If an amount F is due after 7 years and the annual discount rate is r, then:
pw-=—
(ery
For simple interest scenarios (commercial discount):
PW=F-D
where D = discount,
Concept:
Money has time value — receiving money now is worth more than receiving the same amount in the
future due to earning potential (interest)
Example Problem:
Addebt of 10,000 is due after 3 years. If the discount rate is 8% per annum, find the present worth.
Solution:
10000 10000
P 10000 =
¥* Teo0a ~ 1259712

2. Bills of Exchange

Awritten order binding one party to pay a fixed sum to another party at a future date or on demand.

* Payee (who receives payment)
Discounting a bill: The holder sells the bill to a bank/financier for Present Worth before maturity. Bank
deducts discount (interest for the remaining period).
Example Problem:
Abill of 50,000 due after 6 months is discounted at 10% p.a. Find the bank’s discount and the
amount received.
Solution:
Time 6 months
Rate = 10% = 0.10.
Banker's Discount (BD) = F xr xt
year.
BD = 50000 x 0.10 « 5 = 2,500
Amount received = F ~ BD = 50000 - 2500= 47,500.
3. Discounting Techniques
‘Two types of discounts:
1, True Discount (TD) — Interest on present worth.
Fxrx
rp- tert
l+rxt
2. Banker's Discount (BD) - Interest on face value.
BD=F xrxt
Relationship:
BD ~TD = Interest on TD
Also:
Present Worth = F — TD.

Example Problem:
Find True Discount and Banker's Discount on 2,000 due in 9 months at 8% p.a
Solution:
F =2000, r=0.08,
9/12 = 0.75 years
BD = 2000 «0.08 x 0.75= 120
F 2000 2000
= = 1886.79
lt+rt 1+ 0.08 x 0.75 1,06 , 7
TD = F — PW = 2000- 1886.79 = 113.21
Check: BD — TD = 120 ~ 113.21 = 6.79
Interest on TD = 113.21 x 0.08 x 0.75 ~ 6.79, matches.
4. Profit and Loss (Basics)
Cost Price (CP): Price at which an article is purchased.
Selling Price (SP): Price at which an article is sold.
Profit or Gain: When SP > CP,
Profit = SP — CP
Loss: When CP > SP,
Loss = CP — SP
5. Percentage of Profit and Loss
Always calculated on Cost Price unless specified otherwise.

Example Problem:
By selling an article for 990, a profit of 10% is made. Find cost price
Solution:
990 990
P~Ts010 110
Profit = 990-900= 90.
% Profit = x 100 = 10%, checks.
Example Problem (Loss):
Selling price = 720, loss = 10%. Find CP.
Solution:
720 720
cp =—_ == 00

Loss = 800-720= 80, % Loss = = x 100 = 10%.

7. Discount in Marked Price Context
Marked Price (MP) or List Price: Price printed/labeled.
Selling Price: Price after discount.
Discount = MP ~ SP.
Discount x
‘Discount = 100
Successive discounts: If discounts di%, d2% are given,
Effective price after first discount = MP x (1 — d;/100)
After second discount = [MP * (1 — d\/100)] = (1 — d>/100)
Single equivalent discount = 1 — (1 — dy/100)(1 — d2/100) as fraction.
Example Problem:
Marked price = 1200, successive discounts 20% and 10%. Find selling price and equivalent single
discount.
Solution:
After 20% discount: 1200 x 0.80 = 960
After 10% discount: 960 x 0.90 = 864 = SP
Total discount = 1200-864= 336
% discount = AS x 100 = 28%
Equivalent single discount:
1 (0.8 x 0.9) = 1—0.72 = 0.28 = 28%,
8. Important Relationships in Discount Problems
* When % profit and % discount are known: Use SP = MP x (1 — d/100) and SP = CP x (1+
7/100), equate if needed.

Advanced Problem Integrating Concepts:
A trader marks an article 50% above cost price and gives a discount of 20%. Find his profit percent.
Solution:
LetCP= 100,
MP = 100 + 50% of 100 150
Discount = 20% of 150 = 30
sp=150-30= 120
Profit = 120-100= 20
20 =209
Profit % = 22 x 100 = 20%,
