That's going to depend on the compounding interval.

As a first shot:

-- If interest is paid annually, and you take it as soon as it's paid and leave only

the original $1.2 million in the investment, then you're skimming away

0.02 x $1,200,000 = $24,000 each year, for a total of $240,000 in ten years.

With the same annual interest payment, if you leave the interest in the account

until the end of the 10-year period, then at the end of 10 years, the account

is worth

$1,200,000 x (1.02)10 = $1,462,793.30, for a total profit of $262,793.30 .

Compared to taking the interest at the end of every year, your profit is

about 9.5% more overall if you let the interest stay there and work for

you until the end of the 10 years.

If I placed 350 in a bank which paid 6 percent interest for a period of 28years how much money would I have at the end of the 28th year?

This depends on whether the interest paid is "simple" or "compounded". If the interest is simple, the answer is 350[1 + 28(0.06)] = 938, if the 6 percent rate is considered exact. If the interest is compounded, the answer is: 350(1 + 0.06)28, or about 1,789.09, if the interest rate is considered exact. Both answers assume no withdrawals from the bank during the 28 year period and that the bank can pay its debts.


What is periodic rate for compound interest rate of 5.6 percent?

Your question cannot be answered without knowing what period you are talking about. Is the period a year, a month, a day? Compound interest means that interest is added periodically on the latest sum of principle and interest for that period. For example, let's say your interest rate of 5.6 percent is compounded (or calculated) annually (APR). On a $1000 dollar investment, you would earn $56 dollars at the end of a year (1000+(1000*0.056)). If you withdraw your money after 365 days you would receive $1,056. Next year (assuming you left the money there) you would receive $1,115.40 (1056+(1056*.056)). Good luck finding that. Even so, save your money. It's still worth more in your pocket than spent.
