A: : Earning and Purchasing

A.3: : demonstrate an understanding of the factors and methods involved in making and justifying informed purchasing decisions.

A.3.1: : identify and describe various incentives in making purchasing decisions (e.g., 20% off; 1/3 off; buy 3 get 1 free; loyalty rewards; coupons; 0% financing)

B.2: : demonstrate an understanding of simple and compound interest, and solve problems involving related applications;

B.2.1: : determine, through investigation using technology (e.g., calculator, spreadsheet), the effect on simple interest of changes in the principal, interest rate, or time, and solve problems involving applications of simple interest

B.2.2: : determine, through investigation using technology, the compound interest for a given investment, using repeated calculations of simple interest for no more than 6 compounding periods

B.2.3: : describe the relationship between simple interest and compound interest in various ways (i.e., orally; in writing; using tables and graphs)

B.2.4: : determine, through investigation using technology (e.g., a TVM Solver in a graphing calculator or on a website), the effect on the future value of a compound interest investment of changing the total length of time, the interest rate, or the compounding period

B.2.5: : solve problems, using technology, that involve applications of compound interest to saving and investing
