Simple Interest: ๐ด = ๐ + ๐ผ = ๐ + ๐๐๐ก = ๐(1 + ๐๐ก)
A = Amount after time t P = Original amount, such as principle e = The natural number (~2.718) r = Rate of growth/loss, e.g. interest rate (15% = 0.15) t = Elapsed time n = Divides time into periods per time unit

Savings Account Example:
P = $100 r = 8% = 0.08 t = 1 year n = 4 (quarterly)
๐ด = $100 (1 +0.08
4)
4(1)= $108.24
Savings Account Example:
๐ด = $100 ๐0.08(1) = $108.33
If n = 1, A = $108.00 (+0ยข) Annually If n = 4, A = $108.24 (+24ยข) Quarterly If n = 12, A = $108.29 (+5ยข) Monthly If n = 365, A = $108.33 (+4ยข) Daily If n = โ, A = $108.33 (+0ยข) Continuously
Compounded interest after 3 years: ๐ด(3) = ๐ (1 + 8%) (1 + 8%) (1 + 8%)
๐ด(3) = ๐(1 + 0.08)3 = 1.26 * P
