Simple interest is a linear benchmark — useful for loans, deposits, and quick comparisons.

How it works

Simple interest only charges or earns interest on the original principal. It does not compound, so the growth path is linear rather than exponential.

Examples

$10,000 at 6% for 3 years: simple interest produces $1,800 of interest. This makes it a useful baseline when comparing against compound interest products.

Methodology & assumptions

  • Interest = principal × rate × time.
  • Tax and inflation are scenario adjustments only.
  • The calculator can also show a periodic equivalent interest view.
