Understanding Compound Interest

Compound interest is the addition of interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit, or in other words, interest on interest. It is the result of reinvesting interest, rather than paying it out, so that interest in the next period is then earned on the principal sum plus previously accumulated interest.

The compound interest formula is: FV = PV × (1 + r/n)^(nt)

  • FV = Future Value
  • PV = Present Value (initial investment)
  • r = Annual interest rate (as a decimal)
  • n = Number of times interest is compounded per year
  • t = Number of years

Example Calculation

If you invest $10,000 at an annual interest rate of 5% compounded monthly for 10 years:

FV = 10000 × (1 + 0.05/12)^(12×10) = $16,470.09

Your $10,000 investment would grow to $16,470.09, earning $6,470.09 in interest.
