What is the equation to calculate interest accrued on an account?
Q. If we have a starting amount, length of time, and an interest rate, and know that the interest is compounded monthly, what is the equation to figure how much interest would be accrued after a certain amount of time?
Asked by laura_lou80 - Fri Jun 2 16:40:24 2006 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Simple Interest = (Prime Money X Time (yrs) X Annual Interst Rate )/ 100 Now if you look for compound interest then it will be C.I = P (1 +R/100)^N P = Prime Money N = Time (year) R = Rate of interest (annual)

A. Accrued expenses, such as interest payable or tax payable mean that the expense has been incurred but has not yet been paid. They result in the increase of current liabilities. In the cash flow statement, the increase in current liabilities is added to net income to arrive at cash provided by operations.

Can a solicitor take half the interest accrued on my inheritance?
Q. In June I turned 21 years of age and am expecting a sum of money from my great aunt who is now deceased. The solicitor has said that he will be taking half of the interest which has accrued in the savings account which was set up for me when I was 4 years old. The receptionist told my mother that it would take at least three weeks for them to recover the file from storage. I am using the money to fund a trip to Canada in September.
Asked by nick - Wed Jul 8 06:32:49 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I assume that the money has been held on trust for you and that the solicitor is a trustee. If so, he is entitled to charge the trust for his professional services, but he must account for his time in the normal way. He should also have been billing as he went along. He cannot simply deduct a percentage of interest - unless the original terms of the trust as created by your great aunt allowed for this. Solicitors fees can be high, but if the money has been sitting in a bank account he has not had much work to do since the account was opened. Ask to see his invoices and ask him to justify what he has done. Also ask to see the terms of the trust. If you are in any doubt your only course of action is to see another solicitor.

Am I entitled to the equity accrued while purchasing a home on land contract for the last six years?
Q. Purchased home 6 yrs. ago and the land contract period is ending. I am not able to acquire a mortgage on this property now that balloon payment is due. I got behind on payments to the land contract holder since May, couldn't pay the taxes for 2005 and was unable to pay the insurance. The land contract holders have paid all the above for me. I currently have a renter in the home and he has paid his rent timely, but I've used his monthly rent to catch up on my own bills that I've fallen behind on since loss of employment. Am I entitled to counter sue the land contract holders for the equity I accrued while paying this contract for the last 5.5 years?

A. Of course, it all depends on how your contract reads, but probably not. There are typically two views of how land contracts work, and what view applies depends on the law of the state in which the property is located. The first view is that the land contract is just that - a contract. In order for you to acquire title to the land, you must satisfy the terms and conditions of the contract. In this case, you have only partially performed, are probably in default (because you have missed monthly payments and the payment of taxes), and in any event are about to default because you will not be able to make the balloon payment. Your default will trigger the right of the seller/land owner to treminate your contract, and in any event, you… [cont.]

Accrued implies that the shares no longer carry with them the entitlement to current dividends as the seller has retained that entitlement by making the sale only after the ex-div date has passed.

A. Probably nothing needed at December 31. Rent is generally paid on the 1st of the month for that month not for the previous month. In other words, you're paying in advance. It sort of makes sense since you're saying he entered into a lease on January 31st. If you first pay the rent on Feb 1 (the next day), then how could you be paying for the prior month? The 7 year contract does not require a journal entry but needs to be disclosed in the footnotes to the financial statements as a committment, but I don't think that's what you're getting at.

A. Corporations that are in the growth phase of their business development--as Google happens to be in-- must have large amounts of cash for timely acquisitions and joint ventures ( like a Yahoo, or DoubleClick situation). Paying down liabilities too aggressivly may put them in a position where they might have to refinace to raise capital at terms less friendly than they presently enjoy and or where they might lose out on a trimely opportunity. In today's credit environment, this could be huge.

A. You can get financed, it's just that you might need a more sizeable down payment. If your credit score is below, say 640, you will also end up with a higher rate. If it's below 500, you probably won't get financed at all. Try using a mortgage company (ie: mortgage broker) because they will have multiple lending sources, whereas a bank has only their own products.

A. It would be best answered in the "fine print" of your account, but most accounts that accrue interest monthly do so this way: Average the balance over the month, then multiply by the interest rate. For instance, if you had $100 in the bank for 15 days, then deposited another $100 giving you $200 for 15 days your average would be: 100 * 15 + 200 * 15 = 4500 divide by 30 days = $150 average Then multiply by your interest rate: $150 * .0279 = $4.185 which is a fraction of a penny above $4.18. Most banks will round up the penny, but ymmv.

A. No it will not cause you to max out. Typically, the minimum payment the company specifies ensures that you will not go over with interest accrual.

Q. I have a credit card with a low interest rate (below 6%), but I am carrying a high balance (6500 with credit of 6800). If I pay the minimum each month, is it possible that the interest accrued on the balance can cause me to max the card out? I am able to pay the minimum but am not in a position to pay over right now :(

Can a person lose accrued rewards points by transferring a balance to another card?
Q. Hey got one of those lovely letters from my credit card company that says my fixed intrest rate is changing to a higher variable interest rate (for no reason other than "market conditions"). My choice is to accept the change or pay off the balance and close the card. I still have rewards points. Do I need to "cash" those out before switching the balance?

A. Of course your best bet is to contact the credit card company yourself and ask what the conditions are, but I do know that I have played the balance transfer game often in order to maintain the best deals and have not lost any banked rewards points due to having a zero balance. Now if you close the account (or they decide to close it for you, either due to non-use or other reasons) you may well lose the points. But for having a zero balance? Can't imagine them being able to do that. Anyway, here is an excellent website on all things credit related that you can use as a source for questions on credit, free info: Best of luck to you!

How do I get the penalty charge of all interest accrued removed?
Q. I purchased a TV from Circuit City at 0% interest in September of 2007. It was almost paid off when I missed a payment. They since have sent me a bill for all the interest amounting to about $500.00. I have great credit and have never missed a payment before. How do I get this fixed? The people at Chase are not helping me out. They want all that money.

A. You DON'T get them removed. You signed up to pay the penalty AND the interest if you had not paid the FULL amount ON TIME. This is why the offer these plans. When 1 person misses a payment, they make up for 10 people that pay on time.
