WHAT IS COMPOUND INTEREST CALCULATOR?

Calculate the ending balance and interest earned from principal, rate, duration and compounding frequency, with optional regular contributions to see long-term growth.

How to use?

  1. Enter the principal, annual rate and duration.
  2. Choose the compounding frequency and add a regular contribution if needed.
  3. Read the ending balance and interest earned.

Frequently asked questions

What compound frequencies are supported?

Annually, semi-annually, quarterly, monthly, and daily — changing the frequency changes the rate-per-period and number of periods, which affects the ending balance.

Is the regular contribution optional?

Yes, it defaults to 0 (no contribution). If you enter an amount, the tool calculates its future value (contributed at the end of each period) and adds it to the ending balance.

What happens at 0% interest?

Handled correctly: the principal stays unchanged, and if there's a contribution, the ending balance is simply the principal plus the sum of all contributions — never a divide-by-zero error.
