1. What is the Compound Interest Formula?

The compound interest formula calculates the future value of an investment or savings account by accounting for both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods. It demonstrates how money can grow over time through the power of compounding.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the compound interest formula:

\[ FV = P \times (1 + \frac{r}{n})^{(n \times t)} \]

Where:

\( FV \) — Future value of the investment
\( P \) — Principal investment amount
\( r \) — Annual interest rate (in decimal form)
\( n \) — Number of compounding periods per year
\( t \) — Time the money is invested for (in years)

Explanation: The more frequently interest is compounded, the greater the return on your savings. This calculator helps visualize how different compounding frequencies affect your savings growth.
