Frequently asked questions
What will this CD be worth at maturity?
A $5,000 CD at 5% APY for 2 years matures at $5,524.71, earning $524.71.
Is the interest compounded?
Yes — this assumes monthly compounding at the stated APY. Banks quoting APY have already folded compounding into the yield, so actual results are typically identical.
What happens if I withdraw early?
Early withdrawal usually forfeits several months of interest — typically 3–12 months depending on term — which can wipe out a large share of the $524.71 shown here.
