Compound interest describes a method of applying earned or charged interest. In effect, this method adds interest on previously earned or charged interest, including the initial savings or debt amount. For example, £100 earning yearly interest of 5% becomes £105 at the end of the first year. At the end of the second year, 5% interest is earned on £105, increasing the total savings to £110.25.
