Enter assumptions and select Calculate.

APY and nominal-rate modes

APY mode uses balance = principal × (1 + APY)years. Nominal mode uses principal × (1 + r/n)n×years and reports the equivalent APY.

CD boundaries

This models one fixed opening deposit. It does not fetch bank rates or include contributions, withdrawals, early-withdrawal penalties, taxes, FDIC eligibility, recommendations, or bank-specific conventions.

Worked example

An opening deposit of 10,000 at 5% APY for 12 months produces an estimated maturity balance of 10,500 and 500 interest.
