What is a interest?
An interest calculator shows how much simple interest accumulates on an original balance over a chosen period. It is useful for quick estimates where interest is calculated on the starting principal rather than added back to the balance each period.
Formula and calculation method
Simple interest = principal × annual rate × time in years. Ending balance = principal + simple interest.
