Formula
FV = K0 · (1 + i_eff)^n
How the formula works

FV = K₀·(1+i)ⁿ is the core of compound interest: each year not only the capital but also the interest already credited earns interest again. The exponent n turns linear saving into exponential growth – which is why the result explodes over long terms.
