What you need to know: Principal (PV) original amount of money on deposit. Annual Interest Rate (IY) Time Frame or Number of Years (N)

You just deposited $1,000 in a savings account. The bank will pay you 3 percent annual interest. How much interest will you earn if you keep your money in the bank? Formula: Principal x Annual Interest Rate = Interest Earned Solution: $1,000 x.03 = $30

You deposited $50. Annual Interest 4%. Time 1 year. What are the earnings? Formula: Principal x Interest = Earnings Solution: $50 x.04 = $2
7
What you need to know: Future value is the amount your original deposit will be worth in the future based on earning a specific interest rate over a specific period of time. ($1000 + $30) x.03 = $30.90 $1030 + $30.90 = $1060.90
