Interest computed on the principal only.

at a simple interest rate of 8% per year. Compute the total

Compound Interest
Illustration: Tomalczyk Company deposits $10,000 in the Last National
Bank, where it will earn simple interest of 9% per year. It deposits another
$10,000 in the First State Bank, where it will earn compound interest of
9% per year compounded annually. In both cases, Tomalczyk will not
withdraw any interest until 3 years from the date of deposit.

WHAT DO THE NUMBERS MEAN?
A PRETTY
GOOD START
WHAT’S
YOUR PRINCIPLE
The continuing debate on Social Security reform provides a great context to
illustrate the power of compounding. One proposed idea is for the government
to give $1,000 to every citizen at birth. This gift would be deposited in an
account that would earn interest tax-free until the citizen retires. Assuming the
account earns a modest 5% annual return until retirement at age 65, the
$1,000 would grow to $23,839. With monthly compounding, the $1,000
deposited at birth would grow to $25,617.
Why start so early? If the government waited until age 18 to deposit the money,
it would grow to only $9,906 with annual compounding. That is, reducing the
time invested by a third results in more than a 50% reduction in retirement
money. This example illustrates the importance of starting early when the
power of compounding is involved.
