How does compound interest work?

By starting early, students can benefit from the "compound interest" magic. The interest you receive is referred to as compound interest. Using simple math, you can see how this works: if you have $100 and it earns 5% interest annually, you will have $105 at the end of the first year. You'll have $110.25 at the conclusion of the second year. You received $5 on the initial $100 deposit in addition to $0.25 on the $5 in interest, for a total of $5. Initially, 25 cents might not seem like much, but it soon adds up.
