Simple interest means the interest is calculated one time on the total principal of the loan. Therefore, you would pay back $11,161.50 on this loan. However, simple interest loans are very uncommon; most loans in life have compound interest.
Simple interest is based on the original principle of a loan. Simple interest is generally used on short-term loans. Compound interest is interest added to the principal of a deposit or loan so that the added interest also earns interest from then on.
To calculate simple interest, use the formula: Interest = Principal × Rate × Time. For a loan of 8000 pounds at an interest rate of 11% per annum over seven years, the interest would be: 8000 × 0.11 × 7 = 6176 pounds. Therefore, the simple interest on the loan is 6176 pounds.
The process you are describing is called compound interest. In compound interest, the interest earned on the principal amount is added to the principal, and subsequent interest calculations are based on this new total. This results in interest being earned on both the original principal and any previously accumulated interest. This method contrasts with simple interest, where interest is calculated only on the principal amount.

Assumption: "7 2" is actually 7.2 Simple interest is simple. All you do is multiply the principal by the rate to get the yearly amount of interest. Therefore, 3900 times 7.2 is the same as $3900 x 0.072 = $280.80 per year interest. Since its over 3 years, just multiply by 3. Therefore, you get $280.80 x 3 = $842.40 in interest.

To calculate the simple interest, use the formula: Interest = Principal × Rate × Time. Here, the principal is 3050, the rate is 11.5% (or 0.115), and the time is 7 years. So, Interest = 3050 × 0.115 × 7 = 2,305.75. The simple interest on 3050 at 11.5 percent for 7 years is 2,305.75.
simple interst is when you earn interest from your principal but compound interest is when you earn interest from your principal as well as from your previous interest

Simple interest is determined by multiplying the interest rate by the principal of the number of periods. Where, P is the loan and the amount is usually expressed as an annualized percentage.
500 principal, 10 percent annual rate => 50 annual interest 2 year => 100 total interest.
