The interest formula includes three variables
that must be considered when computing
interest:
Interest = Principal Interest Rate Time
When computing interest for one year, Time
equals 1. When the computation period is less
than one year, then Time is a fraction.

For example, if we needed to compute interest for
3 months, Time would be 3/12.
