#### Formulas

Simple Interest: I = P × r × t A = P + I

Compound Interest (Annually): A = P × (1 + r)t I = A − P

Compound Interest (Monthly): A = P × (1 + r/12)12t I = A − P

Where: P = Principal (deposit), r = Annual interest rate (decimal), t = Time in years, I = Interest earned, A = Total amount.
