One thing that's probably not in the scope of the program but really usually
a good idea is error checking.
i.e. this line:
rate = float(raw_input("Enter rate i.e. (0.5) : "))
could be converted to something like:
try:
rate = float(raw_input("Enter rate..."))
except ValueError:
print "Invalid input"
#Quit or loop until valid input is entered.
