Simple Interest

Interest earned only on the original investment.


Simple Interest & Compound Interest

Simple interest is a quick and easy method of calculating the interest charge on a loan. Simple interest is determined by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal by the number of days that elapse between payments.


Compound interest is the addition of interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit, or in other words, interest on interest. It is the result of reinvesting interest, rather than paying it out, so that interest in the next period is then earned on the principal sum plus previously accumulated interest. Compound interest is standard in finance and economics.


Simple Interest & Compound Interest (investopedia)

Simple Interest

Generally, simple interest paid or received over a certain period is a fixed percentage of the principal amount that was borrowed or lent. For example, say a student obtains a simple-interest loan to pay one year of their college tuition, which costs $18,000, and the annual interest rate on their loan is 6%. They repay their loan over three years. The amount of simple interest they pay is: $3,240=$18,000×0.06×3​

Compound Interest

It is calculated by multiplying the principal amount by one plus the annual interest rate raised to the number of compound periods, and then minus the reduction in the principal for that year.


Simple Interest And Cash Flow

Simple interest is a quick and easy method of calculating the interest charge on a loan. Simple interest is determined by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal by the number of days that elapse between payments.


Cash flow is the net amount of cash and cash-equivalents being transferred into and out of a business. At the most fundamental level, a company’s ability to create value for shareholders is determined by its ability to generate positive cash flows, or more specifically, maximize long-term free cash flow.


Simple Interest and Compound Interest is based on

Simple interest is based on the principal amount of a loan or deposit, 
while compound interest is based on the principal amount and the interest that accumulates on it in every period. 
Since simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount of a loan or deposit, it's easier to determine than compound interest

Simple and Compound interest

Simple interest is a quick and easy method of calculating the interest charge on a loan. Simple interest is determined by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal by the number of days that elapse between payments.

Compound interest (or compounding interest) is interest calculated on the initial principal, which also includes all of the accumulated interest of previous periods of a deposit or loan. Thought to have originated in 17th century Italy, compound interest can be thought of as “interest on interest,” and will make a sum grow at a faster rate than simple interest, which is calculated only on the principal amount.




Simple interest and Compound interest ?

"Simple interest  based in calculated on the principal, or original, amount of a loan. Compound interest is calculated on the principal amount and also on the accumulated interest of previous periods, and can thus be regarded as “interest on interest ?
