Why FD Calculation is Important

Understanding FD Maturity & Interest

The maturity amount of an FD is calculated using the compound interest formula:

M = P (1 + r/n)^(n*t)

Where P is the principal amount, r is annual interest rate, n is compounding frequency (monthly), and t is time in years. The interest earned is M – P, and total investment is the principal P.
