Ordinary interest assumes 360 days/year or 30 days/month. This note is for 3 months and 11 days. Divide 9.5 by 12 to get your monthly rate and use the 16/30 ratio to get the interest earned on the 11 days. Add up all 3 months and 11 days worth of interest.


Monthly: 0.79166666666
3 months: 2.37499999998
11 days: 0.53333333333
ordinary interest = 5.54166666664
 
Hello, jaredvaldez!

You have a note in the amount of $10,000 at 9.5% interest from January 5, to April 16.
January 5 to April 16 = 101 days.


(a) Calculate the ordinary interest.
Ordinary interest assumes: 1 year = 360 days.

\(\displaystyle I \;=\;\$10,000 \times 9.5\% \times \frac{101}{360} \:=\:266.527777 \;\approx\;\$266.53\)




(b) Calculate the exact interest.
Exact interest assumes: 1 year = 365 days.

\(\displaystyle I \;=\;\$10,000 \times 9.5\% \times \frac{101}{365} \;=\;262.8767123 \;\approx \; \$262.88\)
