Feedback:
Deposit today = PV = $2,500
Interest rate = i = 6%
No. of years = n = 5
Simple interest:
Simple interest per year = $2,500 (0.06) = $150.00
Simple interest for 5 years = $150 x 5 = $750.00
Future value with compound interest:
FV5 = $2,500 (1 + 0.06)5 = $3,345.56
Simple interest = $750
Interest on interest = $3,345.56 – $2,500 – $750 = $95.56

Deposit today = PV = $5,000
Interest rate = i = 6.75%
No. of years = n = 3
Simple interest:
Simple interest per year = $5,000 (0.0675) = $337.50
Simple interest for 3 years = $337.50 x 3 = $1,012.50
Future value with compound interest:
FV3 = $5,000 (1 + 0.0675)3 = $6,082.38
Simple interest = $1,012.50
Interest on interest = $6,082.38 – $5,000 – $1,012.50 = $69.88
