Study Notes

Understanding Compound Interest

Compound interest is the interest earned on both the principal amount and any accrued interest over time.

Differences between Compound and Simple Interest

Compound interest differs from simple interest as it takes into account the effect of interest earned on previous interest, resulting in exponential growth.
Simple interest, on the other hand, is calculated only on the principal amount.

Compounding Frequency

The compounding frequency refers to the number of times interest is compounded per year, such as annually, quarterly, monthly, or daily.

Simple Annual Interest Rate

The simple annual interest rate is the interest rate that would be earned if the interest were not compounded.

Reinvesting Interest

Reinvesting interest in compound interest leads to exponential growth, as the interest earns more interest, resulting in a snowball effect.
