          This unit is concerned with interest rates and their effects on the value of money. Interest rates
          have widespread influence over decisions made by businesses and by us in personal  lives.
          Corporations pay lakhs of rupees in interest each year for the use of money they have borrowed.
          We earn money on sums we have invested in savings accounts, certificate of deposit, and money
          market funds. We also pay for the use of money that we have borrowed for school loans, mortgages,
          or credit card purchases. We will first examine the nature of interest and its computation. Then, we
          will discuss several investment solutions and computations related to each.
