it depends on wheather the interest is simple or compound
also you should tell me how much money you put in the bank to begin with
but lets calculate the interest on one dollar :
if it is simple interest then:
I=P*R*T where T is in years
=1*18/100*1/360
interest on one dollar principal is 0.0005 $
if it is compound interest then:
I= P*(R+1)^T-p
=0.00046 which is about the same as the simple interest one
multiply my answer by the amount that you put into the bank origonally to find out ur interest
hope i helped

"Compounded continuously" is a meaningless phrase ... we hope your bank or broker didn't quote it to you that way. In order to calculate a future value, you absolutely have to know how often the compounding takes place ... annually, daily, hourly, etc. ? The best compounding you're going to see is 'daily', so let's do it that way. If the actual compounding is any less frequent than 'daily', the actual value will be less than what we're about to calculate: 5 percent annual interest rate = (5/365) = 0.0136986 percent daily (rounded). (1.000136986)(365 x 8) = 1.4917838 (rounded) That's the value of $1 invested at 5% compounded daily for 8 years. Your $500 would become ($500 x 1.4917838) = $745.89
14.8 percent, compounded daily, is approx 7.565 sextillion for a year (8.684 sextillion for a leap year).
Credit card companies use several methods to calculate interest. There can be one or two billing cycles per month. Interest can be charged on the daily balance, new purchases, etc. You should refer to the "How finance charges are calculated" section of you billing statement.
Approximately 7 years. The general rule is to divide 70 by the interest rate to get an approximation of how long it will take to double. If the interest is compounded annual you will have $194.88 after 7 years, and $214.37 after 8 years. Though if interest is compounded more regularly (ie. monthly or daily) this will grow at a slightly faster rate.
