Frequently Asked Questions
Simple vs compound interest?
Simple interest is calculated only on the principal. Compound interest earns on both principal and accumulated interest — which grows faster over time. See the compound interest calculator for comparison.
Where is simple interest used?
Personal loans, auto loans with simple-interest terms, and many short-term bonds. Your loan documents state which method applies.
