I developing a application in c# and MySql. Need help for creating a function to calculate penalty for delayed payment with interest.

Let A=Amount =1000, Interest for delay payment =I= 1%, Penalty=P. (Monthly Payment)

if one month delay for A=1000, P should be 10. (1000/100 *1%)

if two months delay for A=1000, P should be 10 + 20(double the Previous month Penalty).

if three months delay for A=1000, P should be 10 + 20 + 40
if four months delay for then P should be 10 + 20 + 40 + 80
if five months delay then P should be 10 + 20 + 40 + 80 + 160
if six months delay then P should be 10 + 20 + 40 + 80 + 160 + 320

I am not getting any idea to implement this.. Any expert ideas will be helpful using stored procedure (MySql) or functions in c#.

you may use cases in mysql for these multiple case to calculate

CASE [ expression ]

   WHEN condition_1 THEN result_1
   WHEN condition_2 THEN result_2
   ...
   WHEN condition_n THEN result_n

   ELSE result

END

just like you do in c#

So if you have a 36 month delay, you create 36 WHEN statements?

This is a pretty simple math operation.

Basically what you want is to loop through the number of months delay and calculate the sum of the interest for each month + the previous value doubled.

This formula should help you along in your school work.
(if it is not school work it is a bit scary)

P = A * I + 2 * P;

C#

double P = 0.0;
int monthsDelayed = 4;
for (int i = 0; i < monthsDelayed; i++)
{
    P = A * I + 2 * P;
}

Of course it can be done without the loop as well.

C#

int monthsDelayed = 4;
double P = A * I * (Math.Pow(2, monthsDelayed) - 1);

(Haven't done much math in a long time so it took me a while to see the pattern)
