COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Simple interest calculations & days count decoded? How does the simple interest calculator work?
It applies the standard linear formula I = P x R x T to determine accurate interest accumulation.
? Are my investment inputs or financial rates uploaded to servers?
No. All mathematical operations, inputs, linear formulas, and ledgers run entirely locally in your browser memory.
? How is simple interest calculated?
It uses the formula: Interest = Principal x Rate x Time / 100, where Rate is annual percent, and Time is term in years.
? What is the difference between simple interest and compound interest?
Simple interest calculates returns only on the base principal. Compound interest calculates returns on principal plus previously earned interest.
? How are partial years (like days) handled?
If you select 'Days' as tenure, the calculator divides the number of days by 365 to convert the time term into years accurately.
? Can the tool calculate loans and deposits?
Yes. It works symmetrically for loans (interest payable) and savings deposits (interest receivable).
