How do you figure out your total amount of money after interest?
It depends on whether it is simple or compound interest. The formula for simple interest is A = P(1+rt), where A = amount of money after t years, P = Principal, or the amount of money you started with, and r = the annual interest rate, expressed as a decimal (i.e. 7% = 0.07). For compound interest, the formula is A = P(1+r)t.

What is simple interest?
Simple interest does not compound. In other words, If you start off with $500 and get $5 in interest, the $5 you got in interest will not be included when calculating the amount of interest you will get next year. Simple interest can be calculated by the formula i = prt, where i is the amount of money earned from the interest, p is the principle (starting money), r is the rate (as a decimal,) and t is the time in years. Another formula is used to calculated the accumulated amount: A = p(rt + 1), where A is the accumulated amount.

How does compound interest differ from simple interest?
With compound interest, you earn interest on the interest. Basically the interest payments are reinvested into the account whereas with simple interest, you only earn interest on the original balance. The interest payments are kept separate of the balance that you invested i.e.: with a bond, the interest payments don't go into a balance, you just get a check for them or rather your broker receives the check on your behalf and deposits it into your money market account which is separate from the bond that you purchased.
