Funktionsweise von Zinseszinsrechner
Compound interest creates a snowball effect. As interest is added to your account balance, that interest earns interest in the next cycle. The frequency of compounding (daily, monthly, quarterly, or annually) determines how rapidly your investment grows.
Mathematische Analyse & Formeln
Um den Zukunftswert mit Zinseszins zu berechnen, wenden wir die Zinseszinsformel basierend auf Zinssatz und Anlagezeitraum an.
A is the future value of the investment, P is the initial principal, r is the annual interest rate (decimal), n is the compounding frequency per year, and t is the time in years.
Praktische Berechnungsbeispiele
Example 1: Investing $10,000 at 6% compounded monthly for 10 years
- Principal (P): $10,000, Rate (r): 0.06, Frequency (n): 12, Years (t): 10
- Calculate rate factor: r ÷ n = 0.06 ÷ 12 = 0.005
- Calculate exponents: n × t = 12 × 10 = 120 months
- Apply growth: A = $10,000 × (1.005)^120 = $18,193.97
- Total Compound Interest earned: $8,193.97

Häufig Gestellte Fragen (FAQ)
Q: What is the Rule of 72?
A rule of thumb to estimate when an investment will double. Divide 72 by your annual interest rate. (e.g. at 6%, doubling takes 12 years).
Q: What compounding frequency is best?
The higher the compounding frequency (e.g. daily instead of annually), the faster your interest grows.
