The Percentage Formula

The Percentage Formula

Knowing how to work on percentages is a benefit in the area of finances.

If you are figuring out the return of your investments, you will need to know how to calculate percentages. 

Here is an example:

Your return on an investment of $100 is $7. The formula for working out your return in terms of percentage is:

(a) 7 multiplied by 100 =700

(b) The answer is a being divided by 100= 7%

Your return $7 is multiplied by 100

Your investment of $100 is divided by 700

Shirley has $5,000 in her personal savings account and has received $100 in interest off that money. In terms of percentage, what is her return on that money?

(a) $100 multiplied by 100 =$10,000

(b) 10,000 divided by 5,000= 2

Shirley has received 2% interest on her money.

This formula does not include tax so supposing Shirley pays 17.5% tax.

The formula for working out the tax which needs to be paid on interest is straight forward; it is:

Interest received (income) multiplied by the individual’s tax rate (17.5%).

In Shirley’s case, this is $100 multiplied by 17.5% equals $17.50.

Her net return on her money is $82.50.

17.5% is 0.175

An example such as this shows us the futility of just leaving your money in the bank without investing it. The combination of inflation and taxation means that those who do not invest are losing the value of their money. 

Saving money is a good habit to get into, but it is also important to get into the habit of investing. This increases your financial literacy.

Some people do not invest their money because they are afraid of losing their money, yet they will buy lottery tickets which is a sure-fire way of losing. 

Knowing how to figure out percentages is a skill which will assist you in different areas of your life.

Here are some examples of where knowing how to calculate percentages will be a valuable skill.

Shopping & Discounts: Calculate discounts during sales (e.g., “30% off”).

Tips & Service Charges: Determine how much to tip at restaurants (e.g., 15% or 20% of the bill).

Tax Calculations: Compute sales tax (e.g., 8% tax on a purchase).

Budgeting & Expenses: Track spending (e.g., “20% of my income goes to rent”).

Loan & Credit Card Interest: Understand interest rates on loans or credit cards.

Investing for seniors

Investing for seniors

Written by R. A. Stewart

 

Your age is a crucial factor in establishing your savings and investing strategy. Your 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s are your savings years. It is these years when you build up your assets. 

Your 60s and 70s can be considered your spending years. It is when you tick off items on your bucket list while you are able to.

That does not mean that you do not have to work, a lot of older people are taking this option, not because they cannot make ends meet on their pension, but because they enjoy what they are doing.

In New Zealand, retirees will have access to their kiwisaver account once they reach the age of 65. Money invested in kiwisaver will be in growth, balanced, or conservative funds. Most people during their working life opt for growth or balanced funds.

It is time to decide whether to stay with the status quo or invest in more conservative funds. 

Your age and your health are the two most important factors in deciding which fund to invest your money in. 

Older people do not have time on their side to overcome financial setbacks such share market falls and so forth, therefore if you are 60+ it is a good idea to lean toward more conservative investments but still retain some exposure to risk.

It is worth mentioning at this point that New Zealand financial advisor and writer Frances Cook has a formula for calculating how much exposure you should have based on your age, and it is this…

Subtract your age from 100.

If for example you are aged 60 then only 40% of your portfolio should be invested in the share market.

I do not necessarily agree with this formula and my exposure to the share market is more than her formula suggests I have.

However, that is a personal choice; one that I do not necessarily recommend to you because your circumstances will be different as they are for different people.

If you are connected to the internet and you have a lot of spare cash in your account then I suggest that you place most of your money into an account that is not connected to internet banking. This is to reduce your chances of becoming a victim of internet scammers. 

With internet banking being the norm, this could be difficult in the future though.

In any case I still believe that it will pay to arrange your finances so that if you fall victim to a scammer then not all of your money will be lost. 

Don’t leave all of your money in the one account for goodness sake as some victims of scammers have.

If you are traveling then make sure you don’t have access to your life savings because if you do then so will be a scammer if they manage to get hold of your login details. What I am trying to say is you should leave your entire life savings in an account which you use to do your daily spending. Keep it in a separate account from the account you do your day to day banking. The 

Scammers have all kinds of ways to trick people into handing over their login details.

Anyone can be a victim so don’t be proud by saying “I am not that stupid.”

As you get older you will have to invest more conservatively; that does not necessarily mean transferring from growth to conservative funds but investing some of your current savings into low risk accounts. The deciding factor is your timeline. How soon you need the money and funds which are going to be used within 12 months are best invested conservatively.

Beginners Guide to the share market

You do not have to be rich to get involved in the share market these days with online share market platforms such as Sharesies and Hatch which provide a gateway to novice investors.

If you are from a country other than New Zealand or Australia then Robinhood from the States is a share market platform which you can use.

Here are my tips to follow if you are a complete beginner.

Tip 1: Shares go up and down

The value of your shares will fluctuate; that is the nature of the markets. It is important not to focus on your shares but rather on saving and letting the markets take care of itself because if you are strategic with your investments then falling markets will not scare you. 

Tip 2: Know why you are investing

Have a clear plan on what the money’s for. Is it for your retirement, a mortgage, a vehicle, or as a rainy day fund. 

Tip 3: Invest money you can afford to lose

Money which is invested in the share market should only be money which you can fully afford to lose because of the volatile nature of shares, however, you can choose a conservative funds when investing in managed funds. It all depends on your time frame. If the money is needed in the short term then investing in conservative funds will be your best option. 

Tip 4: Know your risk profile

Your risk profile is the level of risk you are prepared for or are willing to take. If you are young you are able to take more risks because you have more time to recover from financial setbacks.

Tip 5: Not a substitute for kiwisaver

Online investing  platforms such as Robinhood, Sharesies, Hatch and the like should not be a substitute for your retirement fund, in New Zealand that is called Kiwisaver)

Tip 5: Not a get rich scheme

Investing in the share market is a long term game; it is not a get rich quick scheme. Don’t be taken in by the stories of those who have made a share market killing because you never get to hear about the losses and it is likely that people who made that killing will spend years trying to make another killing and lose all their gains.

Tip 6: Patience is a virtue

It is time and not timing which is the key to making money in the share market. Patience investors are rewarded handsomely if they stay onboard rather than jump ship during stormy seas.

Tip 6: Do your homework

It is important to do your homework on the various companies you plan to invest in and not just invest haphazardly. The alternative is to invest in managed funds; the fund manager will choose the companies for you.

Tip 7: Take responsibility

Don’t blame anyone for your mistakes, take responsibility for them and learn from them; that way you will become a better investor.

Tip 8: Get right advice

Listen to the right people. Prior to the Global Financial Crisis, some financial experts were saying “The high interest rates do not reflect the higher risk investors of finance companies are taking on.”

Well guess what happened? A number of them folded.

Start investing on a shoestring

Sharesies makes it possible for anyone to get into buying and selling shares. It is an online share market platform where you have the option of purchasing shares in individual companies or in various funds (managed/mutual funds). You can even start with $5. This is a no brainer because it gives investors young and not so young the chance to improve their financial literacy. There is certainly no substitute for experience when it comes to learning and this is applicable to everything else, not just investing.

Investing with online share market platforms

Share market tips for the Mum and Dad investor

Written by R. A. Stewart

I think it is fair to say that a lot of people dream of hitting it big on the share market and some do but for everyone who has found a pot of gold in the markets there are countless others who entered the markets blindly without doing their homework or having a strategy in place; this article is to give you some pointers if you have some money to spare and are looking for somewhere to invest your hard earned cash.

In the share market, as in real life, if you are able to reduce your number of bad decisions then you will be better off; not that there’s anything wrong with making mistakes.

You are sometimes better off by learning a lesson the hard way if that is what it takes for you to get the lesson. 

Here then are my share market pointers.

1 Investing directly into the share market is beyond most small investors because their ability to diversify their portfolio is limited therefore the only option is to invest all of their funds in one company which leaves them open to disaster. If that particular industry which the company is involved in suffers a downturn, value of the share heads south. It is similar to a horse racing fan attending the track and betting all of their money on the one horse instead of dividing their bankroll between several horses.

Small investors are able to invest in the markets, however, and enjoy the same benefits of larger investors by investing in managed funds; this is where your savings are combined with other investors. You do not have the choice of which companies to invest your money in as that decision is left to the trust manager, however, you can choose which type of fund to invest in whether growth, balanced, or conservative.

2 Investing in the markets is a long-term game, therefore, if you require the money in the short term then you may be better off leaving your money in fixed term interest bearing accounts however, having said that, investing in the markets can increase your savings if you give it enough time. Young people have the advantage of time on their side; they are able to take more risks with their money because they have more time to recover from financial setbacks than their parents.

3 Don’t try to time the markets! It is time and not timing which is the key to making money in the share market. If you are waiting until the markets dip before investing you are missing out on plenty of opportunities to increase your capital and this is particularly true in a rising market. 

4 Decide whether the money is required in the short term, medium term, or long term before deciding on where to invest your money. 

Money needed in the short term or on standby is money which may be needed for car repairs, a holiday, household expenses etc

Medium term funds is money needed for a new car

Long term funds are savings for your retirement such as your superannuation funds.

Short term is not money which should be invested in bank deposits where you are able to have easy access to it.

Medium term money can be invested in managed funds where you are able to have easy access to it but still have the potential for it to grow.

Long term money is money invested in a retirement fund such as kiwisaver in New Zealand.

Conclusion

Think of money as “seed,” it will reap a nice harvest if you give it enough time, therefore you need to sow enough seed in order to increase your wealth; the share market is an excellent investment and managed funds makes it easier for the ordinary person to get involved in the markets. My site www.robertastewart.com has articles to help you increase your wealth. CHECK IT OUT!

The averaging system for shares

The averaging system for shares

Averaging is a term which has been used by share market followers over the years. This is when an investor buys several shares in the same company over a period of time and the average price which was paid per share may be higher or lower depending on which direction the share price is going.

Here is an example of one New Zealand company, Fletcher Building beginning with January 4, 2023. The first three days of the year were public holidays so January 4 was used as the starting date and every seven days after that.

Date Share Price

4/1 4.71

11/1 4.90

18/1 5.06

25/1 5.11

1/2 5.25

8/2 5.46

15/2 5.07

22/2 4.81

1/3 4.71

8/3 4.65

15/3 4.50

Now let us assume that you had purchased Fletcher Building shares on each of these dates, investing the same amount of money. You would simply add up the totals of these prices and divide the answer by 11. That is the average price you paid for the share. In this case the average price you would have paid for Fletcher Building shares would have been $4.93 if you had bought them every week. 

We all know that shares go up and down so drip feeding shares into the market in this way will ensure that you have bought shares at a lower price when they are down as well as when they are on an upward trend.

Online trading platforms such as Sharesies and Robinhood make this process easy. If you have more money to spend you may want to choose two or more companies per year to invest in using this system.

As with other investment strategies you need to ask the question  “Where does this fit in with my financial goals?”

The Art of Averaging 

INTRODUCTION

Investors must realize that investing in the markets has its ups and downs (literally) that it is important to keep it all into the right perspective if investments do not go your way. There is a method of playing the markets in a way that you can take advantage of the market drops. 

The Art of Averaging 

Averaging is a term one may come across in the markets now and again; what this refers to is the average price paid for a particular share if you had bought shares in that particular company.

To calculate the average price paid for a particular share you add up the total amount you have paid for the shares and divide that by the number of shares you have bought in that company. 

The answer is the average amount that you have paid per share.

Try this mathematical question:

There are five numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50

What is the average number?

The calculation: 

Add up the five numbers:  10 + 20 + 30 + 40 + 50 = 150

Divide the total of the five numbers (150) by 5

150 divided by 5 = 30 (answer)

You can do this easily with a calculator.

There are so many share trading platforms available these days that investing directly into the sharemarket has never been easier for the ordinary man and women.

So how does averaging work?

If you purchase stock at regular intervals you will pay different prices for each stock because share prices go up and down. Imagine if you bought something at the supermarket last week at the full price then bought the same item this week on special. The average price you paid for the item will be somewhere between the higher price and the lower price.

The sharemarket works like that. By purchasing a particular stock at regular intervals you will manage to pick up some shares in it when the price is lower. This is the advantage of saving regularly. 

In fact I think there is a case for purchasing more shares when the price is low. The average price paid per share is determined by calculations as explained earlier. 

The averaging strategy can also be used in cryptocurrency investing. 

Bitcoin is more volatile than the sharemarket so an astute investor who has an eye for a bargain can invest when the price has dropped.

There are so many share trading platforms available that playing the markets is accessible to everyone. I have joined two of them in New Zealand. Most countries have share trading platforms available. Signing up for them is easy; you require some form of identification. Just follow the directions and you are all set up.

TO SUMMARISE

Playing the markets requires a positive mindset and a cool head. If you have these you can profit from falling markets. Averaging is a method that takes advantage of falling markets.

Investing facts of life you must accept

Investing facts of life you must accept

In every aspect of life there are some cold hard facts that you need to get your head around. Investing your savings is no different. Here are seven facts of life when it comes to investing. Understand these and you will be better equipped to make better choices.

  1. Whenever there is a chance for a capital gain there is also a chance for capital loss

Whether you like it or not, if an opportunity for a capital gain arises then there is also the chance for a capital loss. It is easy to invest when all is going well and the money you have invested has grown but most of your capital gain will come when you are investing while others are selling. It requires patience and self control to stay with your financial plan when the markets are heading south. Your financial plan has to take into account the possibility of a bear market therefore, invest according to your timeline.

  1. It is time not timing which is the key to growing your wealth

The key to prosperity is to start saving early. Once you get into the habit of saving and investing from an early age then things will become easier for you years down the track. Saving a portion of your income means living within your means but that does not mean that you have to be very stingy. It means not frittering away your spare cash on items which are not going to help you financially in the long term. If you are on the verge of retirement or already retired then you have less time to recover from financial setbacks therefore cannot be as aggressive with your investing as the young ones but that does not mean that growth funds are out of bound but rather just balance your strategy depending on how soon you are going to use the money.

  1. Your investments are your responsibility

You may be using a financial adviser to deal with your investments but they are still your responsibility because an adviser cannot think for you; it is up to you to set your own goals which match your personal situation. It is then up to you to tell your adviser where you wish to invest your money. Some investors like to have someone to blame and during a market downturn the first person to blame is their fund manager. In the case of retirement schemes such as the New Zealand Kiwi saver, investors have the choice as to whether to invest their money in growth, balanced or conservative funds. If balanced funds are chosen then there is the choice of what percentage of your savings will be invested in growth funds. Balanced funds are a mixture of growth and conservative funds.

  1. Value is determined by what others are prepared to pay for

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself the question, “What will this be worth in x years time?” The answer is quite simple!

What gives something value is what others are prepared to pay for that item whether it is a painting, someone’s stamp collection, shares in a particular company, cryptocurrency, property, gold, or whatever. 

None of us can know for certain what the market will do, therefore we take calculated risks based on our knowledge and expectation. 

As with anything in life there is no guarantee but if you do your homework and put a bit of thought into your strategy then you can have a nice nest egg to call upon when you need the money.

  1. Life is one big pyramid

One fact of life you need to accept is that life is like a pyramid. Using sport as an example; few ever make it to the elite level, comparatively few that is compared to the numbers taking part. It is the elites who make the most money, then as you go down to each level there are more and more participants. At the grass roots level you will find the highest number of participants, these are the sports men, women, and children who take part in sport for no other reason other than the enjoyment they derive from their chosen sport. 

If you have the ability to make money from your sport then it certainly will pay to have a backup plan by adding another string to your bow.

As for investing, well, there can only be one Warren Buffet, Robert Kiyosaki, or Anthony Robbins. It is important that you be the best at being you and not try to be a second rate version of someone else. Your personal financial choices must be what is applicable to your own circumstances.

 

  1. Life is all about percentages

Most people have played the lottery and most of us whether we have played it or not have heard about the absurd amounts of money which some lucky lottery winners have won; sometimes running in the millions. There is something which you must understand and it is this; For every person who won the lottery there are countless thousands who have lost their money trying the same thing. This is also true of many aspects of investing. You may have heard about someone who made a killing on the share market, on bitcoin, or some other investment but you seldom hear of those who lost everything while trying the same thing. My advice to those who are thinking about taking on high risk investments is to only do so with discretionary spending money and not with your retirement savings or money set aside for a house deposit or a car.

  1. Life is a numbers game

In life you cannot expect to win every single time. That is unrealistic. But making mistakes is just part of the learning process. The fact is that the more mistakes one makes the more likely one is going to win. Some people avoided risk after the 1987 sharemarket crash having got their fingers burned during Black Monday. 

If you do not take risks then nothing may happen to you but then you will also miss out on some of life’s experiences. When it comes to investing you need to take some kinds, albeit calculated ones in order to get ahead of inflation and the cost of living, otherwise the value of your money.

Financial language

Financial language

Written by R. A. Stewart

It is important to familiarize yourself with financial jargon and their meanings. Do your research on the internet for further information on what these terms mean. This increases your financial literacy.

ASSET RICH-CASH POOR

This refers to people whose wealth are tied up with their property but have little cash in the bank.

BAD DEBT

Usually described as consumer debt or dumb debt, bad debt is when one purchases consumer goods on credit. It is bad debt because the item which has been purchased loses it’s value over time.

CAPITAL GAINS.

This is the increase in value of your asset. It is important to keep in mind that if there is a chancre for a capital gain there is also a chance for a capital loss.

CASH ASSET

A cash asset is money in the bank, stocks and shares, and any investment invested with a financial institution.

EQUITY

When someone refers to the equity in their property, they mean how much equity is left after deducting the money owing on the property from it’s value.

DEPRECIATION

Depreciation is the reduced value of any item purchased. A vehicle is a perfect example of something which reduces it’s value over time.

FINANCIAL PLAN

A plan for your money. To address money issues.

GOOD DEBT

Borrowing money for something which increases in value is considered to be “good debt,” however, it is needs to be stressed that if something can increase in value then it is just as likely to decrease in value; shares and cryptocurrency are typical examples.

INFLATION

The is based on the average increase of prices of consumer goods. If your investments are earning less than the inflation rate then you are losing money. 

LIABILITY

This is anything which you have bought on credit and pay interest on. It is said to be a liability. A vehicle is a typical example of a liability. A house could be a liability if it is costing you money but it could be said to be an asset especially if it’s value is increasing per annum.

NON-CASH ASSET

A property is an example of a non-cash asset. 

RISK PROFILE

This is your temperament to risk and is one factor in determining where to invest your money.

INVESTING ON A SHOESTRING

INTRODUCTION

You do not need to be rich to invest but you need to invest in order to be rich and investing in the share market has never been more accessible thanks to the internet. It gives everyone the opportunity to invest irrespective of income levels, therefore there is no excuse for not getting involved.

Investing in the stock market on a shoestring

Investing in the share market has never been as easy as it is today thanks to share market platforms where mum and dad investors can invest as little as $10 at a time. Compare that to investing through a share broker where fees make this uneconomic unless you are able to invest a few thousand dollars at a time. Problem with this is that unless one had tens of thousands of dollars to invest then diversification where money is invested in a variety of companies is out of the question.

The solution to this is mutual funds, often called managed funds where your money is pooled with those of other investors. The fund manager invests on your behalf. The advantage of this for the ordinary man and woman is that the fund manager who has experience in the financial markets is working on your behalf for a minimal fee.

Your money is invested in a variety of companies and industries in order to minimize risk. Wealth, and Invest Now

Sharesies is a popular trading platform in New Zealand but is certainly not the only one; Hatch, Kernel, and Invest Now are others. In the US, Robin Hood is a popular trading platform.

There are so many benefits of getting involved in the share market in this way with the main one being that it improves the financial literacy of participants. It is all very well just reading books of a financial nature but knowledge comes from action otherwise what you may have learned on paper is just information.

There are several strategies you can use to drip feed money into the markets using online platforms. 

I will tell you what I do. I focus on one particular company per year and invest money in this same company regularly, usually every two weeks. That way I will purchase shares at the lower price when the shares are down. If an investor just simply bought shares in one company with just one lump sum then there is the possibility that the share price was high which means it will have to rise further to maintain the value of the investment when inflation and fees are taken into account.

The share I have been buying this year is Spark, a New Zealand phone company. Last year it was Genesis Energy. I have not yet decided which company I will go to next year.

If you are prepared to invest more money you can choose more than one company. So long as you invest regularly you will take advantage of the low points in the market. 

If you so wish you can just invest in managed funds. Sharesies has a range of options for this with varying degrees of risk. The golden rule is the higher the return the higher the risk. An astute investor will take this into account when deciding what to invest in.

The basic rules of investing still need to be adhered to such as not placing all of your eggs in the one basket and investing according to your goals. If you require the money in the short-term then investing in growth stocks which are high return but with higher risk is not a suitable investment because chances are that the stock price will be down at the time when you need the money.

Micro investing is an excellent way to get involved in the sharemarket. It helps to build your financial know-how, not to mention your wealth. It can be part of your wealth building strategy so what are you waiting for?

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE RICH TO INVEST

A Mum and Dad share market investment (New Zealand only)

Investing directly in the sharemarket is an option not available to the ordinary Kiwi because broker fees makes purchasing small parcels of shares uneconomic; then there is the question of diversification, the strategy of purchasing a number of shares from different industries; this is out of the question for small investors.

The best option is to invest in managed funds where everyone’s money is pooled together to purchase funds. It is just like a retail chain being able to purchase in bulk in order to purchase goods at a cheaper rate. Kiwisaver, the New Zealand retirement scheme is a perfect example of this.

A person on the minimum hourly rate working 40 hours per week would have $27.50 going into kiwisaver every week if they were paying 4% of their gross wages into KIwisaver. 

This is a terrific way to build up your retirement funds!

There are other options available for Mum and Dad investors; the one I am going to talk about is Sharesies.

This is a managed fund just like Kiwisaver but where it differs from that scheme and other managed funds is that you are able to choose which companies to invest in. 

It is a terrific way to build up your financial literacy with a minimum of outlay.

Check out these features of Sharesies;

1 Just $30 to join and $30 per annum thereafter

2 Start the fund with just $20

3 Invest as little as $10 in shares.

You will be given a reference number which is used when you deposit money in the sharesies bank account.

Think of money as a seed, if you sow seed in enough places it will reap you a nice harvest at a later date.

Money can really grow when you invest in a number of places and sharesies is an excellent addition to an investor’s financial portfolio; you can check it out here;
