Certificates of Deposit (CDs) may allow interest to be paid out annually. Alternatively, the annual interest can be accumulated and compounded until maturity. The choice must be made at the point of taking out the CD.

Annual payment of interest: On each anniversary date the annual interest is paid by transferring it to your current account or to a savings account etc of your choice. This means there is no compounding of interest, year on year.

Calculation:
5000 at 8 percent is 400. You will receive 400 each year, for 7 years, a total of 2,800.

Interest compounded and paid at maturity:

Statement of end of year values including interest, at end of year:

  1. 5400.00
  2. 5,832.00
  3. 6,298.56
  4. 6,802.44
  5. 7,346.64
  6. 7,934.37
  7. 8,569.12

At the end of year 7 the total payout will be 8,569.12 i.e. 5000 initial deposit + 3,569.12 total interest earned.

NOTE: These calculations assume that no tax is deducted at source.

Are there high interest rates on certificate of deposit?

Interest rates on CDs are generally between 1 and 2 percent, so not really. If you want high returns, you'll need to look into investments, which can be risky.


Jo wants to put some money in a 15th month certificate of deposit accounts that pay 5 percent annual interest He wants the account to earn 200 in interest. How much money should he put in the account?

Amount to Deposit (P) = ? Time (N) = 15 months or 1.25 years Rate of Interest (R) = 5 Interest Earned = 200 Formula for Interest = P * N * R / 100 Rearranging the formula we get: P = Interest * 100 / N * R = (200 * 100) / 1.25 * 5 = 20000 / 6.25 = 3200 If they want to earn 200 interest they must deposit 3200 as the amount for the certificate of deposit.

What return can you expect on a 1 million dollar investment?

In investments and finance there is no guarantee of a positive return on any investment. Even in a low risk certificate of deposit, for example, the interest maybe be several points at most. Even here the return is not guaranteed as the FDIC will only insure up to 250,000 per account. If the bank was to became insolvent, it would represent a 75 percent loss, minus any interest accrued. Lastly, the effects of inflation will further devalue any gains made by interest on the initial capital.
