In reality, many savings accounts accrue on a daily basis leading to a varying number of days’ interest dependent on the number of days in the particular month.</p><p><b>Number of Weeks & Fortnights in a Year</b></p><p>One year is assumed to contain exactly 52 weeks or 26 fortnights. This implicitly assumes that a year has 364 days rather than the actual 365 or 366.</p><p><b>Deposit and Interest Compounding Frequency</b></p><p>The calculator assumes that deposits and interest crediting occurs at the same frequency. This frequency is an input parameter entered by the user - namely annually, monthly, fortnightly or weekly.</p><p><b>Rounding of Amounts of Total Accumulation and Interest Earned</b></p><p>The amounts of total accumulation and interest earned are rounded to the nearer cent. In practice, the accuracy in these amounts is dependent on the rounding protocols used for interim amounts of interest credited to the account.</p>]]></AssumptionText> <Footer type="cdata"><![CDATA[ Note: The results from this calculator should be used as an indication only.
