CREDIT….HMMMM! By Julie Chapman for

CREDIT IS THE ABILITY TO BUY NOW AND PAY MORE LATER! TRUE?FALSE? PAYMENT OF INTEREST IS USUALLY A PART OF USING CREDIT, SO YES, IF YOU PAY INTEREST, YOU PAY MORE! IF YOU PAY YOUR BILL BEFORE INTEREST IS CHARGED, YOU DO NOT PAY MORE! ONLY ABOUT 30% OF AMERCANS PAYOFF CREDIT BALANCES EVERY MONTH, SO 70% OF THE TIME, THE STATEMENT IS TRUE!!

DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO PAY MORE? YOU HAVE TO BE SMART! Advantages of Credit  Able to buy needed items now.  Don’t have to carry cash.  Have a record of purchases.  Expensive emergencies  Convenient  Purchase Protection

DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO PAY MORE? YOU HAVE TO BE SMART! DISADVANTAGES  PURCHASE WILL LIKELY COST MORE!!!  MISTAKES WITH CREDIT TEND TO HAVE LONG TERM CONSEQUENCES  IMPULSE BUYING IS EASIER IN OUR IMMEDIATE GRATIFICATION CULTURE

OKAY, IT COSTS MORE. WHY? You must pay companies to loan you money. This payment is INTEREST. Two Types of Interest: o Simple Formula-the simple formula  I = P x R x T  Interest= Principle X Rate X Time

OKAY, IT COSTS MORE. WHY? o Compound Interest-- The not-so-simple formula I = P X 1 + (r/n) nt  I = final amount  P = principal amount (initial investment)  r = annual nominal interest rate (as a decimal, not in percentage)  n = number of times the interest is compounded per year  t = number of years

OKAY, IT COSTS MORE. WHY? Let’s look at an online credit card payment calculator that is based on the compound interest calculation formula: tor/Default.aspx

OKAY, IT COSTS MORE. WHY? Assume that you owe $5000 on your credit card and are paying 12% interest. You are making only the minimum monthly payment. How long will it take to payoff your balance?

OKAY, IT COSTS MORE. WHY? What if you decide to pay $400 every month and have a 12% interest rate?  NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE TOTAL INTEREST PAID!

WHEN YOU USE CREDIT, YOU ALMOST CERTAINLY: BUY NOW! PAY MORE, LATER! Sometimes MUCH, MUCH MORE!!
