  2. Flat rate (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_rate_(finance)

    This yields an annualized flat rate of 12%, and an annualized effective or true rate of 19.05%. The true rate can also be calculated by iteration from the amortization schedule, using the compound interest formula. To keep quoted interest rates as low as possible, institutions also often call for one-time origination or administration fees.

  3. Annuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annuity

    To calculate present value, the k-th payment must be discounted to the present by dividing by the interest, compounded by k terms. Hence the contribution of the k-th payment R would be (+). Just considering R to be 1, then:

  4. Petroleum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum

    Consumption is currently around 84 million barrels (13.4 × 10 ^ 6 m 3) per day, or 4.9 km 3 per year, yielding a remaining oil supply of only about 120 years, if current demand remains static. [92] More recent studies, however, put the number at around 50 years.

  5. Black–Scholes model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black–Scholes_model

    In practice, interest rates are not constant—they vary by tenor (coupon frequency), giving an interest rate curve which may be interpolated to pick an appropriate rate to use in the Black–Scholes formula. Another consideration is that interest rates vary over time.

  6. Compound Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_Poisson_distribution

    A compound Poisson distribution, in which the summands have an exponential distribution, was used by Revfeim to model the distribution of the total rainfall in a day, where each day contains a Poisson-distributed number of events each of which provides an amount of rainfall which has an exponential distribution. [13]

  7. Alcoholism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholism

    Alcoholism is the continued drinking of alcohol despite it causing problems. Some definitions require evidence of dependence and withdrawal. [15] Problematic use of alcohol has been mentioned in the earliest historical records.

  8. Equated monthly installment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equated_Monthly_Installment

    The formula for EMI (in arrears) is: [2] = (+) or, equivalently, = (+) (+) Where: P is the principal amount borrowed, A is the periodic amortization payment, r is the annual interest rate divided by 100 (annual interest rate also divided by 12 in case of monthly installments), and n is the total number of payments (for a 30-year loan with monthly payments n = 30 × 12 = 360).

  9. Expiration (options) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expiration_(options)

    In finance, the expiration date of an option contract (represented by Greek letter tau, τ) is the last date on which the holder of the option may exercise it according to its terms.
