Watch your money grow! Enter your principal amount, annual interest rate, time period and compounding frequency to see the maturity value and total interest earned — the magic of compounding explained.
A = P(1 + r/n)nt — where P is principal, r is annual rate, n is compounding frequency per year, and t is time in years.
More frequent compounding (monthly vs yearly) gives slightly higher returns because interest starts earning interest sooner.
Simple interest is calculated only on the principal; compound interest is calculated on principal + accumulated interest, so money grows faster.
