Frequently Asked Questions

How is compound interest different from simple interest?

Simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount. Compound interest is calculated on the principal plus the accumulated interest of previous periods.

How often should interest be compounded?

The more frequent the compounding, the higher the final return. Monthly compounding generates more wealth than annual compounding at the same percentage rate.

Is this calculator accurate for stocks?

While stocks don't provide a fixed percentage, you can use historical averages (like 7-10% for the S&P 500) to estimate long-term growth.
