How much difference do you think it makes for your bank account whether there is continuous compounding of interest or only monthly or annual compounding?
Banks that offer more frequent compounding usually lower the rate so that the annual equivalent rate remains the same. So the probable answer is no difference at all. Also, for the amount of money most people have in their bank accounts, the difference would, at best, be negligible. It would, quite likely, be less than the value that they attach to the time required to calculate the difference.

What is the difference between APY and interest rate?
The difference between APY and interest rate is that APY (Annual Percentage Yield) takes into account compound interest, while the interest rate does not. APY reflects the total amount of interest earned on an investment or savings account over a year, including the effect of compounding.
What is the interest on 1200 invested for 2 years in an account that earns 5 percent interest per year?
The answer, assuming compounding once per year and using generic monetary units (MUs), is MU123. In the first year, MU1,200 earning 5% generates MU60 of interest. The MU60 earned the first year is added to the original MU1,200, allowing us to earn interest on MU1,260 in the second year. MU1,260 earning 5% generates MU63. So, MU60 + MU63 is equal to MU123. The answers will be different assuming different compounding periods as follows: Compounding Period Two Years of Interest No compounding MU120.00 Yearly compounding MU123.00 Six-month compounding MU124.58 Quarterly compounding MU125.38 Monthly compounding MU125.93 Daily compounding MU126.20 Continuous compounding MU126.21

What does compounding frequency refers to?

The higher the compounding frequency, the more frequently interest is calculated and added to the account, resulting in faster growth of the investment or increased interest costs on the loan.

How calculated effective yield?
Effective yield is calculated by taking into account the impact of compounding interest on an investment. It is the total return on an investment over a specific period, factoring in both interest payments and the effects of compounding. The formula for effective yield is: Effective Yield = (1 + (Nominal Interest Rate / Compounding Period))^Compounding Period - 1.
How is the APY calculated on a CD?
The APY on a CD is calculated by taking into account the interest rate and the frequency of compounding. It is a measure of the total amount of interest earned on the CD over a year, including the effects of compounding.
What is the Difference between nominal and effective interest rate?
Nominal interest rate is also defined as a stated interest rate. This interest works according to the simple interest and does not take into account the compounding periods. Effective interest rate is the one which caters the compounding periods during a payment plan. It is used to compare the annual interest between loans with different compounding periods like week, month, year etc. In general stated or nominal interest rate is less than the effective one. And the later depicts the true picture of financial payments.
