Martin's Savings Calculator

I just wondered if the Savings Calculator that is on the main pages took compound interest into account? For example, if I enter that I have £30 to invest but will make no further monthly payments, ever, are the totals calculated including compound interest or interest on JUST £30?

I put in £1000 for my starting figure, for 1 year at 10% interest, and it comes up with £1100. I then changed it to 2 years and it comes up with £1210, in other words, your getting interest on your interest.:beer: 0 -
