Time Value of Money
Money has value, and if money remains un-invested
(like in a large bottle), value is lost.
Whenever the interest charge for any interest period (a year, for
example) is based on the remaining principal amount plus any
accumulated interest charges up to the beginning of that period, the
interest is said to be compound.
