What is the formula for calculating the simple interest on a loan?

  1. I = P * R * T

  2. I = P * R / T

  3. I = P * T / R

  4. I = R * T / P


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Simple interest is calculated by multiplying the principal amount (P) by the interest rate (R) and the time period (T).

What is the formula for calculating the compound interest on a loan?

  1. I = P * (1 + R)^T - P

  2. I = P * (1 - R)^T - P

  3. I = P * (1 + R)^T + P

  4. I = P * (1 - R)^T + P


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Compound interest is calculated by multiplying the principal amount (P) by the factor (1 + R)^T, where R is the interest rate and T is the time period, and then subtracting the principal amount.

What is the difference between simple interest and compound interest?

  1. Simple interest is calculated on the principal amount only, while compound interest is calculated on the principal amount plus the accumulated interest.

  2. Simple interest is calculated on the principal amount plus the accumulated interest, while compound interest is calculated on the principal amount only.

  3. Simple interest is calculated on the principal amount multiplied by the interest rate, while compound interest is calculated on the principal amount divided by the interest rate.

  4. Simple interest is calculated on the principal amount divided by the interest rate, while compound interest is calculated on the principal amount multiplied by the interest rate.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Simple interest is calculated on the principal amount only, while compound interest is calculated on the principal amount plus the accumulated interest. This means that compound interest grows faster than simple interest over time.

What is the formula for calculating the monthly payment on a loan?

  1. M = P * R * (1 + R)^T / ((1 + R)^T - 1)

  2. M = P * R * (1 - R)^T / ((1 - R)^T - 1)

  3. M = P * R * (1 + R)^T / ((1 + R)^T + 1)

  4. M = P * R * (1 - R)^T / ((1 - R)^T + 1)


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the monthly payment on a loan is M = P * R * (1 + R)^T / ((1 + R)^T - 1), where P is the principal amount, R is the interest rate, and T is the time period in months.

What is the formula for calculating the total amount paid on a loan?

  1. T = M * T

  2. T = M * (1 + R)^T

  3. T = M * (1 - R)^T

  4. T = M / (1 + R)^T


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the total amount paid on a loan is T = M * T, where M is the monthly payment and T is the time period in months.

What is the formula for calculating the total interest paid on a loan?

  1. I = T - P

  2. I = P - T

  3. I = M * T - P

  4. I = P - M * T


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the total interest paid on a loan is I = T - P, where T is the total amount paid and P is the principal amount.

What is the formula for calculating the effective annual interest rate (EAR) on a loan?

  1. EAR = (1 + R)^T - 1

  2. EAR = (1 - R)^T - 1

  3. EAR = (1 + R)^T + 1

  4. EAR = (1 - R)^T + 1


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the effective annual interest rate (EAR) on a loan is EAR = (1 + R)^T - 1, where R is the nominal interest rate and T is the time period in years.

What is the formula for calculating the annual percentage rate (APR) on a loan?

  1. APR = EAR / T

  2. APR = EAR * T

  3. APR = EAR + T

  4. APR = EAR - T


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the annual percentage rate (APR) on a loan is APR = EAR / T, where EAR is the effective annual interest rate and T is the time period in years.

What is the formula for calculating the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio on a loan?

  1. LTV = Loan Amount / Appraised Value

  2. LTV = Loan Amount / Purchase Price

  3. LTV = Appraised Value / Loan Amount

  4. LTV = Purchase Price / Loan Amount


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio on a loan is LTV = Loan Amount / Appraised Value.

What is the formula for calculating the debt-to-income (DTI) ratio on a loan?

  1. DTI = Total Monthly Debt Payments / Gross Monthly Income

  2. DTI = Total Monthly Debt Payments / Net Monthly Income

  3. DTI = Gross Monthly Income / Total Monthly Debt Payments

  4. DTI = Net Monthly Income / Total Monthly Debt Payments


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the debt-to-income (DTI) ratio on a loan is DTI = Total Monthly Debt Payments / Gross Monthly Income.

What is the formula for calculating the coverage ratio on a loan?

  1. Coverage Ratio = Net Operating Income / Total Debt Service

  2. Coverage Ratio = Total Debt Service / Net Operating Income

  3. Coverage Ratio = Net Operating Income / Interest Expense

  4. Coverage Ratio = Interest Expense / Net Operating Income


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the coverage ratio on a loan is Coverage Ratio = Net Operating Income / Total Debt Service.

What is the formula for calculating the default risk premium on a loan?

  1. Default Risk Premium = Expected Loss / Loan Amount

  2. Default Risk Premium = Loan Amount / Expected Loss

  3. Default Risk Premium = Probability of Default * Loss Given Default

  4. Default Risk Premium = Loss Given Default / Probability of Default


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the default risk premium on a loan is Default Risk Premium = Probability of Default * Loss Given Default.

What is the formula for calculating the credit score on a loan?

  1. Credit Score = FICO Score + VantageScore

  2. Credit Score = FICO Score - VantageScore

  3. Credit Score = FICO Score * VantageScore

  4. Credit Score = FICO Score / VantageScore


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the credit score on a loan is Credit Score = FICO Score + VantageScore.

What is the formula for calculating the financial risk score on a loan?

  1. Financial Risk Score = Credit Score + DTI Ratio

  2. Financial Risk Score = Credit Score - DTI Ratio

  3. Financial Risk Score = Credit Score * DTI Ratio

  4. Financial Risk Score = Credit Score / DTI Ratio


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the financial risk score on a loan is Financial Risk Score = Credit Score + DTI Ratio.

What is the formula for calculating the probability of default on a loan?

  1. Probability of Default = Default Risk Premium / Loan Amount

  2. Probability of Default = Loan Amount / Default Risk Premium

  3. Probability of Default = Expected Loss / Loan Amount

  4. Probability of Default = Loan Amount / Expected Loss


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The formula for calculating the probability of default on a loan is Probability of Default = Default Risk Premium / Loan Amount.
