Student workload

Calculatory workload:
27 h/op * 3op = 81 h

Of this approximately
- 32 h of studying the material
- 45 h of exercises
- 4 h for exams

Content scheduling

More precise timing will be presented in the beginning of the course, but the topics will be discussed more or less in the following order:
- indexes
- simple interest
- compound interest
- periodic payments
- financial calculations
- investment calculations

Further information

Final exam in two parts. Part 1 determines whether you pass or fail, part 2 determines your grade.
