Kwanini mambo ya pesa huwa always complicated? Like why should CBK not just ask u to loan them 89371.60 @12.504% annually? The DISCOUNT is upfront since the VALUE at purchase is 100,000 but you just paid 89371.60 Please note the T-bill are in tranches of 100k Put it in anothet way. Interest is on 100k but you give them 89,371.60. This(upfront) is easy to see! When it comes to trading it's more dificult! Its upfront Jamaneni! timing difference between when its earned and when its paid

Also, earlier this morning, I thought I saw two ads in that website: one saying that fixed deposits are paying 13% and another one saying 12%. It is also not clear whether what they are advertising is after or before withholding tax.... now talk about "hidden" charges! My money adviser informed me that the Faulu offer is gross that is bound to reduce once you factor in the taxes. This has not been clarified in the advertisement. My adviser handles my money market investment. Keeping it all in the family

I GIVE 90K NOW,I GET PAID 100K AFTER 12 MONTHS. WHERE IS THE UPFRONT!!! Teachers should be the best paid I think! Imagine that you give CBK 100/= today at 10% p.a. interest. Since interest is naturally paid at end of period you expect 110/= after 12 months! If they give you 10/= back today and 100/= after 12 months we call that interest 10% int paid upfront!! 100/= earns interest of 10/= on the spot¡ and your 100/= is returned after one year. Confusing or convincing? The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Rank: Elder Joined: 1/21/2010 Posts: 6,675 Location: Nairobi		Interest on tbills is paid upfront!! Lets try and make this simple! Imagine your father gave you 100million to invest with a compulsory return of 5million on top after one year... Anything over and above is for you to keep! You have a choice to choose between tbills and fixed deposit at 10% each... (assuming no withholding tax) 1. You have an option of depositing the 100million in a bank to receive 10million in interest at the end of the year... You will pay your father 105million and keep 5million for your own pleasure! But you will have to wait one year to enjoy this money... 2. You have an option of buying tbills meaning you will pay 90.9million and receive 100million at the end of the year! But you will be remaining with 9.1million (100-90.9)... You then pay your father his 5million interest TODAY and you enjoy your 4.1million interest TODAY and give him the full 100million at the end of the year!!! doesn't this logic prove that tbill interest is upfront?? Some will wonder why one would choose 4.1million today instead of 5million at the end of the year! I say to those that thanx to the TIME VALUE OF MONEY the two amounts are equal!

If you are employed, would you rather get paid upfront or not? Upfront pay allows one to buy time value of money. E.g. Say you wait for the 5M to come at the year end only to see a great investment deal pass you buy in between the year. $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

Rank: Elder Joined: 9/29/2006 Posts: 2,570		@guru, (1) are you saying you can't invest 90.9M at 10% interest in a fixed acc and get 100M at end of the period? (2) if in your scenario above you give 90.9M to CBK and not 90M to get 100M there's nothing like upfront!! H-a-a-k-u-n-a-a-a ... The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.
