FAQ
What is compound interest?
Compound interest is interest earned on both the original amount and previously earned interest.
What is the difference between simple and compound interest?
Simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount, while compound interest is calculated on principal plus accumulated interest.
Why does compounding frequency matter?
More frequent compounding usually increases the final amount because interest is added more often.
