FAQ
What is compound interest?
Interest earned on both the original principal and previously accumulated interest — money grows faster over time than simple interest.
How is it calculated?
A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt). For $1,000 at 5% monthly for 10 years: 1000 × (1 + 0.05/12)^120.
What is total interest?
The final amount minus the original principal — the extra money you earned.
