1 Answer

0 votes
function calculateCompoundInterest(
  principal: number, // Initial amount of money
  rate: number,      // Annual interest rate in percent
  years: number      // Number of years the money is invested
): number {
  // Validate input: all values must be non-negative
  if (principal < 0 || rate < 0 || years < 0) {
    console.error("Error: Principal, rate, and years must be non-negative values.");
    return -1;
  }

  // Calculate total amount using the compound interest formula
  const amount: number = principal * Math.pow(1 + rate / 100, years);

  // Return compound interest (total amount - principal)
  return amount - principal;
}

const principal: number = 100000;
const rate: number = 3.5;
const years: number = 5;

const compoundInterest: number = calculateCompoundInterest(principal, rate, years);

if (compoundInterest >= 0) {
    console.log(`Principal Amount: ${principal.toFixed(2)}`);
    console.log(`Annual Interest Rate: ${rate.toFixed(2)}%`);
    console.log(`Years: ${years.toFixed(2)}`);
    console.log(`Compound Interest: ${compoundInterest.toFixed(2)}`);
    console.log(`Total Amount: ${(principal + compoundInterest).toFixed(2)}`);
}


 
 
/*
run:
    
"Principal Amount: 100000.00" 
"Annual Interest Rate: 3.50%" 
"Years: 5.00" 
"Compound Interest: 18768.63" 
"Total Amount: 118768.63" 
 
*/
