Frequently asked questions

What is the compound interest formula?+

A = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t), where P is the principal, r is the annual rate, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the time in years.

Why does compounding frequency matter?+

The more often interest compounds, the faster your money grows. Monthly compounding yields slightly more than yearly compounding at the same rate.

What is the difference between simple and compound interest?+

Simple interest is calculated only on the principal, while compound interest is calculated on the principal plus all previously earned interest.
