Formula Used

The future value of a saving account is calculated using the compound interest formula:

Compound Interest Formula

Future Value = P × (1 + r/n)^(nt) + PMT × (((1 + r/n)^(nt) - 1) / (r/n))

P = Initial deposit amount
PMT = Monthly deposit amount
r = Annual interest rate (in decimal)
n = Number of times interest is compounded per year
t = Time period in years

Where:

Future Value is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.
P is the principal amount (the initial amount of money).
r is the annual interest rate (decimal).
n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.
t is the time the money is invested for, in years.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the future value of a saving account with the following details:

Initial deposit: PKR 10,000
Monthly deposit: PKR 5,000
Annual interest rate: 8%
Compounding: Monthly
Time period: 5 years

Using the formula:

Calculation Steps

Future Value = 10,000 × (1 + 0.08/12)^(12×5) + 5,000 × (((1 + 0.08/12)^(12×5) - 1) / (0.08/12))

Future Value ≈ PKR 145,234

After 5 years, your saving account will grow to approximately PKR 145,234, with PKR 135,234 coming from interest earnings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between simple and compound interest?

Simple interest is calculated only on the original principal amount, while compound interest is calculated on the initial principal and also on the accumulated interest of previous periods. Compound interest typically results in higher returns over time.

How often should I check my saving account balance?

It's recommended to check your balance at least once a month to ensure all deposits have been credited and to monitor for any unauthorized transactions.

Can I withdraw money from my saving account anytime?

Yes, you can withdraw money from your saving account at any time, but frequent withdrawals may affect your interest earnings and savings goals.

What happens if I don't make monthly deposits?

If you don't make monthly deposits, your account will only grow based on the initial deposit and the interest rate. The calculator will still show the future value without the monthly contributions.
