As we discussed this morning, we will learn and practice the future value and present value before reviewing the net present value. When we compute the future and present value, we use the compound interest. On page 121,Chapters 5.1 the authors described the compound interest, which is different than simple interest. 

What are some differences between simple and compound interest? Would you prefer to earn simple or compound interest? Why?
