What is the compound interest formula?
A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt) where A is final amount, P is principal, r is annual interest rate, n is compounding frequency per year, and t is time in years.
How does compounding frequency affect returns?
More frequent compounding (daily or monthly vs. annually) produces slightly higher returns because interest is calculated and added to the principal more often, letting each addition start earning its own interest sooner.
Why is compound interest called the 'eighth wonder of the world'?
Because growth compounds exponentially rather than linearly — a modest sum invested early can grow to far exceed a larger sum invested later, purely due to the compounding effect over time.
