How to Use This Calculator

Using this calculator is simple:

Select the annual interest rate offered by Chase Bank for your savings account.
Choose the term length (in years) for which you plan to keep the money in the account.
Click "Calculate" to see your estimated earnings.

Formula Used

The calculation uses the simple interest formula:

Interest = Principal × Rate × Time

Where:

Principal is the initial deposit amount
Rate is the annual interest rate (in decimal form)
Time is the term length in years

The final amount is calculated by adding the interest to the principal.

Worked Example

Let's say you deposit $5,000 in a Chase Bank savings account with a 1.2% annual interest rate. If you leave the money in the account for 3 years, the calculation would be:

Interest = $5,000 × 0.012 × 3 = $180

Final Amount = $5,000 + $180 = $5,180

This means you would earn $180 in interest over 3 years, bringing your total to $5,180.
