Annual Savings = 2000 * 12 = 24000 Annual Interest = 12% of 24000 = 2880 A.Interest + A.Savings = 26880
Annual Balance * 20 yrs = 537600

Warren Buffet likes this; this is not a straight maths, it is the application of maths.

Banks pay interests on monthly basis. Thus, after month 1, the accrued balanced will be N2,020 and after month 2 it will be N4,060.20 and month 3 = N6,120.80 and so on and so forth.

The total accrued money after a 240-month contribution is N1,998,295.84
