Still, Scrooge's interest rate would be illegal in many a land: 30% interest computed on a monthly basis is 360% (!!) APR...and compounded weekly means that you get in the hole pretty quickly with this usurious old bastard!
Obviously, though, Donald missed a few payments (if he had paid 15¢ every week, he'd have the loan paid off in 2 1/2 months, and only be out $1.45). Lesson--don't miss payments!! Because...
Perhaps, though, the power of Mathmagic can save Donald from complete bankruptcy and humiliation!....stay tuned!
From Four Color #1051 (1959)
