How Interest Rates Work
Interest rates on savings accounts are typically expressed as an Annual Percentage Rate (APR). This means the interest is calculated on a yearly basis, regardless of how often interest is paid.
For example, if you deposit $10,000 at an interest rate of 4% for 2 years:
Interest = $10,000 × 0.04 × 2 = $800
Final Amount = $10,000 + $800 = $10,800
Some savings accounts may offer compound interest, where interest is calculated on the initial principal and also on the accumulated interest of previous periods. The compound interest formula is:
