Frequently Asked Questions
How is simple interest different from compound interest?▾
Simple interest is computed only on the original principal, so it grows linearly each year. Compound interest is computed on the principal plus previously earned interest, so it grows exponentially.
Where is simple interest commonly used?▾
Simple interest is typical for short-term loans, car loans, savings bonds and some bank deposits, where the interest does not get reinvested into the principal.
