Book Description

Excerpt from Coffin's Interest Tables at One-Half One, Two, Three, Three-and-One-Half, Four, Four-and-One-Half, Five, Six, Seven, Eight and Ten Per-Cent, Per Annum, Showing the Interest on Any Amount From $1. 00 to $10, 000: Also Containing a Perennial Time-Table, Tables of Values of Foreign Money, the Interest Laws of All the States, Rates of Postage, Business Forms and Business Laws in Daily Use The tables in this volume have been prepared in the belief, founded upon careful inquiries among business-men generally, that of the great number of interest tables now in use none contain calculations of interest at the lower per cents. Which are now necessarily used. The tables are arranged with a view of affording a more convenient medium for ascertaining simple and compound interest, the day of maturity of notes, and the number of days, months, or years between two different dates. The rates of 1 and of per cent., together with the table showing the interest upon one dollar for one hundred days, the interest in this table being calculated to five places of decimals, afford a ready means of ascertaining interest at any rate per cent. Attention to the following explanations and examples will enable any person to compute interest, etc., with as much ease as the most experienced accountants.
