◼ Current liabilities (ST) are those liabilities
that will be paid within one year of the

LO 2
Interest Calculation Methods
Straight Interest
Interest = Principal × Rate × Time in years
= $20,000 × 0.12 (or 12%) × 1
= $ 2,400 per year or $200 per month
If principal borrowed for 3 months,
Interest expense would be $200 x 3 = $600
or $20,000 x 12% x 3/12 = $600
Annual Percentage Interest Rate (APR)
APR = Interest Paid ÷ Money available × Time
= $2,400 ÷ $20,000 × 1
= 12% (or 0.12)
