    I want to calculate earnings that are compounded daily at 1.05%. How can I do this?

    For example: $300.00 compounded @ 1.05 percent daily for 90 days

    I know the method the long way, which is how I worked out what the credit company owes me on their fraud scheme which is what I am claiming, so they don't sue me and I don't get my refund, but it stops them from reporting me to the crib. 


    day 1 = USD 300, x 1.05% = 3.15 usd per day = 303.15


    day 2 = USD 303.15 x 1.05% = and so on and so forth.


     Oh good! I learned something new today.


    This is the formula.. And an example. and the website if you need to know is http://math.about.com/od/formulas/a/compound.htm


    M = P( 1 + i )n


    M is the final amount including the principal.


    P is the principal amount.


    i is the rate of interest per year.


    n is the number of years invested.


    Applying the Formula


    Let's say that I have A $1000 .00 to invest for 3 years at rate of 5% compound interest.


    M = 1000 (1 + 0.05)3 = 1157.62.


    You can see that my $1000 .00 is worth 1157.62.
