Hint **
When you deposit money in bank, bank pays interest.
When you borrow money from credit card or bank you pay interest on it.
For example you deposited $400 in bank.
Bank pays 4% per year interest. If I take my money out from bank after 1 year I will get $400 + 4% of $400 = $400 + $16
= $416
If I take my money out from bank after 2 years I will get $400 + 4% of $400 + 4% of $400 = $400 + $16 + $16
= $432 (Simple Interest)
But bank pays compound interest ... find out what compound interest is?
