Abstract: Abstract Retail accounts give the clients of a bank the opportunity to deposit their money. The client lends money to the bank, whereas the bank borrows money from the client. Money on accounts is also called a retail deposit. Normally banks recompense their clients by paying an interest rate, yet these accounts pay little or no interest. Low interest rates can be justified by the fact that the costs of the banks for the infrastructure, staff and paperwork are substantial. In the following we present the basic interest calculation. The beginning value BV and the end value EV of a money account are related to the interest rate r: EV = BV 1 + r . $$ \mathrm{EV}=\mathrm{BV}\ \left(1+\mathrm{r}\right). $$
