How to Use This Calculator

The calculator will display your total interest earned and the final amount in your account after the selected term.
Formula Used
The calculation uses the simple interest formula:
Simple Interest Formula
Interest = Principal × Rate × Time
Final Amount = Principal + Interest
Where:
- Principal is the initial deposit amount
- Rate is the annual interest rate (in decimal form)
- Time is the term length in years
Note
This calculator uses simple interest, which is common for savings accounts. Some accounts may offer compound interest, which would require a different calculation.
Worked Example
Let's say you deposit $5,000 in a Citi savings account with a 1.25% annual interest rate for 3 years.
- Principal = $5,000
- Rate = 1.25% = 0.0125
- Time = 3 years
Using the formula:
Calculation
Interest = $5,000 × 0.0125 × 3 = $187.50
Final Amount = $5,000 + $187.50 = $5,187.50
After 3 years, you would have earned $187.50 in interest and your account balance would be $5,187.50.
