titleCompounding Interest Formula

FV = PV x (1 + r)^n where,

PV = The end of day balance e.g. 1200

r = periodic interest rate so in this case daily interest rate which is worked out by dividing 1 by 365 (number of days in year) and mulitplying by 0.05 (5%)

n = number of compounding periods the balance/PV will compound - in the same period as the periodic interest rate - so in this case Days. So if a balance exists for 5 days we use n=5 to calculate what the balance produces in interest when compounding.
