This tool helps you calculate your holding time quickly and accurately.
How to Use the Calculator

Where:
- Principal: The initial amount of money.
- Rate: The annual interest rate (converted to a decimal).
- Frequency: The number of compounding periods per year.
- Time: The time the money is invested or borrowed for, in years.
