Future Value Formula

The future value of an investment with compound interest:

FV=PVtimes(1+r)nFV = PV \\times (1 + r)^n

Where:

  • FV = Future Value
  • PV = Present Value
  • r = Interest rate per period (as decimal)
  • n = Number of periods
Compound Interest

Compound interest means interest is earned on both the principal and previously earned interest.

The longer the time period, the greater the effect of compounding.

Higher interest rates lead to faster growth over time.
