Compound interest is the interest earned on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods.
Start with your principal amount. This is the foundation of your investment that will grow over time.
Interest is calculated on your principal plus any previously earned interest, creating exponential growth.
With time and regular contributions, your investment grows exponentially, demonstrating the power of compounding.
Simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount, while compound interest is calculated on both the principal and accumulated interest. Compound interest results in exponential growth over time, making it much more powerful for long-term investments.
More frequent compounding generally leads to higher returns. Daily compounding will yield slightly more than monthly, which yields more than annually. However, the difference becomes less significant with very high frequencies.
Additional contributions are regular deposits you make to your investment account. These contributions also earn compound interest, significantly accelerating your wealth building process over time.
