Maturity Value
What is maturity value?
• The total sum of money which the payee will receive on the maturity
date
Formula Maturity Value:
Interest bearing notes:
Maturity value, S = Face value + Interest
=P+I
= P + Prt
= P(1+rt)
Non-Interest bearing notes:
Maturity value, S = Face value
=P Mathematics for Management

Example:
Peter has two different notes and both have a face value of
RM5000 for 60 days. The first note has a simple interest rate
of 8%, while the second note has a discount rate of 7%. What

Formula Bank Discount
D = Sdt
where
S: the simple amount/maturity value
d: discount rate (%)
t: term of discount in years

Proceed
If the note was discounted:
• the date of the note is discounting date
• the amount received on the date of discounting is called the
proceeds.
• The terms of discount starting from the note was discounted
until the maturity date.
Proceeds = Maturity Value – Bank Discount
=S–D
= S – Sdt
= S(1-dt)

Simple Interest Equivalent to Bank Discount
• An interest rate, r% and discount rate d% are said to be equivalent if the
two rates give the same present value for an amount due in the future.
Thus,
