Some Important Points to Note :
- If the interest is calculated on same amount of money it is called the Simple Interest. Simple Interest will be the same for all the years.
- Interest which is calculated not only on the initial principal but also the accumulated interest of prior periods is called compound interest.
- Interest can be thought of as the rental cost of money. The math requires a solid grasp of percentages and exponents. Like Rates and Work questions, this concept can appear intimidating if you don't know the required formulas, but are actually simple to solve.
