In maths, compounding effects are the additional growth or additional interest, resulting from the compounding effects of - for example - interest on interest.
The management and analysis of a firm's shareholder value, particularly in relation to its capital structure and funding, and in relation to any proposals for major acquisitions or disposals.

Interest quoted at 5% per annum, compounded annually, for two years maturity, means that the interest accumulated after two years is:

When both the number of periods and the rate of growth/interest are low, compounding effects are relatively small.
 
When either the number of periods or the rate of growth/interest - or both - are greater, compounding effects quickly become very much larger.
 
 
 
<span style="color:#4B0082">'''Example 2: Compounding for two years at 50% per annum'''</span>
 
Sales are growing at 50% per annum, for two years.
 
This means that the total growth after two years is:
 
= (1.50 x 1.50) - 1
 
= 125% for the two year period.
 
 
Without the additional growth on growth, the total growth would have been simply
 
50% per annum x 2 years
 
= 100%.
 
 
So the compounding effect of growth on growth here
 
= 125% - 100%
 
= 25% over the two year period (= 50% x 50%).
 
 
 
<span style="color:#4B0082">'''Example 3: Compounding for 20 years at 5% per annum'''</span>
 
Interest quoted at 5% per annum, compounded annually, for 20 years maturity, means that the interest accumulated after 20 years is:
 
= 1.05<sup>20</sup> - 1
 
= 165% for the 20-year period.
 
 
Without the additional interest on interest, the total interest would have been simply
 
5% per annum x 20 years
 
= 100%.
 
 
So the compounding effect of interest on interest here
 
= 165% - 100%
 
= 65% over the 20-year period.
