How Does Compound Interest Work?

Compound interest is the process where interest is added to the principal amount, and then future interest calculations are based on this increased balance. This creates a snowball effect where your money grows at an accelerating rate over time.

The Compound Interest Formula:

A = P(1 + r/n)nt

  • A = Future value of investment
  • P = Principal investment amount
  • r = Annual interest rate (decimal)
  • n = Number of times interest is compounded per year
  • t = Time in years

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between simple and compound interest?

Simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount, while compound interest is calculated on the principal plus accumulated interest, leading to exponential growth.

How often should interest compound?

The more frequently interest compounds, the more you earn. Daily compounding yields slightly more than monthly, which yields more than annually.
