(Interest Rate) r
(Time Period) t
(Interest Earned) I

11. Compound Interest Equations
There are two methods for calculating compound interest
Single sum of money
Money invested only once at the beginning of an investment
Equal number of investments spread over time
Equal amounts of money are invested multiple times (once a month, once a year, etc.)

12. Compound Interest Equation – Single Sum
P (1 + r)n = A
Amount Investment is Worth
Principal (1 + Interest Rate)Time Periods =
$1,000 invested at 7% interest rate compounded yearly for 5 years
1,000 (1+ .07)5 = $

13. Compound Interest Equation - Multiple Investments in Equal Amounts
PMT x
(1+r)n-1 = A r
Payment x
(1+Interest Rate)Time Period-1 =
Amount Investment is Worth
Interest Rate
$1,000 invested every year at 7% annual interest rate for 5 years
1,000 x
(1+.07)5-1 =
