1. What is the Monzo Interest Rate Calculator?

The Monzo Interest Rate Calculator estimates the maturity amount for Monzo savings accounts in the UK using the compound interest formula. It helps users project their savings growth over time based on principal amount, interest rate, compounding frequency, and time period.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the compound interest formula:

\[ A = P \times (1 + R / n)^{(n \times T)} \]

Where:

\( P \) — Principal amount (GBP)
\( R \) — Annual interest rate (decimal)
\( n \) — Compounding frequency per year
\( T \) — Time period in years
\( A \) — Maturity amount (GBP)

Explanation: The formula calculates how much your savings will grow with compound interest, accounting for how frequently interest is added to your principal.

3. Importance of Compound Interest Calculation

Details: Understanding compound interest helps savers make informed decisions about their savings strategy, compare different savings products, and plan for long-term financial goals.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in GBP, annual interest rate as a decimal (e.g., 0.05 for 5%), compounding frequency (how many times per year interest is compounded), and time period in years. All values must be positive numbers.
