Paying with Credit vs. Cash Paying with credit • You borrow money to make a purchase and repay the money borrowed later • Is a form of borrowing • is like taking out a loan that has to be repaid. Paying with cash • You spend only the cash you have in your hand or in your checking account • keeps you from spending more money than you have.

Borrowing Money from a Bank Why do banks lend people money? • Banks make money from the interest the borrower pays to use the money • EXAMPLE • If you borrow $1,000.00 from a bank and the interest was 10% you would have to repay the bank $1,100.00. • The additional $100.00 is the fee (interest) the bank charges you to use the money you borrowed.
