Homework Answers
The interest which is earned when the interest payments are reinvested is known as interest on interest. It is also referred to as compound interest. If the interest of $10 is reinvested along with the principal at a 10% rate, then the interest of the second year is $11. So, the extra $1 is interest on interest.
So, the correct answer is D.
