I want to compute compound interest year wise, Can anyone help me in creating an excel sheet. I tried the net but could not find something i could use. I tried a few things but it did not work.

I have something like this:

Principal

Rate of Interest (in Percentage)

Fixed Deposit From Date:

Fixed Deposit To Date

I want yearly interest calculations.

If I have a fixed deposit for 3 years and 4 months, Then For Each year, i want interest calculations.

Also From Date can start on Any month - Say it could start in Sept, So interest calculation should be From Sept to 31st March of the current year and from 1st April of Next year to 31st March of the following year and so on.

Any Excel experts Please help me.

I can suggest you to use Fixed Deposit Interest Calculator as according to me its a nice calculator to calculate FD before inversting too.

Calculating interest through excel sheet can be time consuming. I suggest you to use FD interest calculator. Many banks or NBFCs provide online Fixed Deposit calculator which would helpful to determine maturity amount and earned interest.

Hello Mr. Vaibhav

I saw your post today by chance while searching for a simple worksheet calculation for Quarterly Interest earned on Fixed Deposits. The amount of interest received or receivable in each quarter from all the FDs is of value for calculating Advance Tax payable.

I have posted the workbook I created. I am a simple Excel user so I created the way I understood. A note is provided from cell A11 and below in the “EntrySheet” in the attached Workbook, to understand method of working. Meticulous data entry and copying and pasting formulas is required to get correct result.

Kindly inform if you have come across a better worksheet.

Thanks

Hello Mr. Vaibhav

In continuation to my post dated 14-08-2016, I enclose another worksheet today. It calculates quarterly interest on FDs by the Excel formula “IPMT”. It also compares the method stated in my earlier post. Note is provided at cells from K1 to Q39 in the worksheet for clarity.

Thank you very much for providing the excel file, 112266_1237135_20_years_bond.xlsx.

I used the “IPMT” formula earlier for calculating EMI and interest payable on housing loan. But it did not strike me that “IPMT” can be used for calculating interest also till I saw the above file. I am sure this is not the simplest solution yet it is good enough for calculating Advance Tax.

Thanks

Useful tips and instructions are provided in the worksheet, “Readme” to calculate quarterly interest.

Hope the workbook will be of use to readers.
