It is a common practice in lending companies that the interest is deducted at the time money is borrowed. Mr. Anito applied a loan amount of P 50,000 with an interest rate of 16% per year. During the time he received the money, the 16% interest is being deducted and he received only P 42,000. At the end of one year, Mr. Anito has to pay P 50,000. What is the actual rate of interest?
