You now invest your total, the $110, and receive a rate of return of 10 percent, but at the end of this year your gain is not $10, but rather $11. The rate of return hasn't changed, so why was the gain $10 last year and $11 this year? The answer is that when you reinvest past earnings, then in the future you will earn interest not only on the original investment, but also on the past accumulated returns; this is called compound interest.


The formula for compound interest, showing how much will accumulate by a certain time in the future given the original amount invested and the annual rate of return, is as follows:


Original investment(1 + rate of return)^number of years = future value


Thus, making a one-time investment of $1,000 and letting an 8 percent annual return on this investment compound for 40 years would give a future value of $1,000(1 + .08)^40 = $21,724. One lesson of compound interest is to try to save early to build lifetime wealth, because saving in your 20s and 30s allows much more time to accumulate and thus to let the power of compound interest work than saving done in your 50s or 60s.

]]> Tip #1

A shortcut to finding out about how long it will take to double your money is called the Rule of 72. Divide the rate of interest you will be getting into 72. The answer will give you a ballpark figure on how long it will take for your money to double. A rate of eight percent will take about nine years to double the investment (72 divide by 8). Many students will think it would take about 12.5 years (100 divide by 8). The difference shows the power of compound interest.


Tip #2

How important is the fact that interest compounds? Albert Einstein said that "compounding is the greatest mathematical discovery of all time." Use a children's book such as The King's Chessboard to demonstrate, in an exaggerated way, the value of compounding.


Tip #3

Explain to the students that compounding can work for you or against you. If you save early and often, it works for you. If you borrow on a credit card and don't pay off the balance, it works against you.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    Standard: 1

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

  • Scarcity
  • Students will understand that: Productive resources are limited. Therefore, people cannot have all the goods and services they want; as a result, they must choose some things and give up others.
  • Students will be able to use this knowledge to: Identify what they gain and what they give up when they make choices.

    • Find lessons that meet this standard >>


    Standard: 2

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    • Find lessons that meet this standard >>


    Standard: 3

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    • Find lessons that meet this standard >>


    Standard: 7

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

  • Students will be able to use this knowledge to: Explain how changes in the level of competition in different markets can affect price and output levels.

    • Find lessons that meet this standard >>


    Standard: 10

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

  • Institutions
  • Students will understand that: Institutions evolve and are created to help individuals and groups accomplish their goals.

  • Students will be able to use this knowledge to: Identify the risks and potential returns to entrepreneurship, as well as the skills necessary to engage in it.

Governments often provide for national defense, address environmental concerns, define and protect property rights, and attempt to make markets more competitive. Most government policies also have direct or indirect effects on people's incomes.
  • Students will be able to use this knowledge to: Identify and evaluate the benefits and costs of alternative public policies, and assess who enjoys the benefits and who bears the costs.

    • Find lessons that meet this standard >>


    Standard: 17

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

  • Government Failure

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

  • Economic Fluctuations
  • Students will understand that: Fluctuations in a nation's overall levels of income, employment, and prices are determined by the interaction of spending and production decisions made by all households, firms, government agencies, and others in the economy.
