Formula Used

The calculator uses these standard financial formulas:

Simple Interest: A = P(1 + rt) Where: A = Amount after time t P = Principal amount r = Annual interest rate (in decimal) t = Time the money is invested for (in years)

Compound Interest: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt) Where: A = Amount after time t P = Principal amount r = Annual interest rate (in decimal) n = Number of times interest is compounded per year t = Time the money is invested for (in years)

For Bank of Baroda savings accounts, compounding is typically done annually (n=1).

Worked Example

Let's calculate the interest for ₹50,000 at 4% annual interest for 5 years with annual compounding:

Using the compound interest formula:

A = 50,000(1 + 0.04/1)^(1×5) = 50,000(1.04)^5 ≈ ₹54,204.85

Total interest earned = ₹54,204.85 - ₹50,000 = ₹4,204.85

This means you would earn approximately ₹4,204.85 in interest over 5 years, bringing your total to ₹54,204.85.

Understanding Interest Types

Bank of Baroda typically offers two types of interest calculations for savings accounts:

Interest Type	Calculation Method	When Interest is Earned
