Explanation

How Time Deposit Returns Are Simulated

This calculator provides simulation-based estimates for Philippine time deposits across 3 months to 5 years, including Traditional and Digital bank scenarios.

Tax Treatment and Net Rate Interpretation

All interest outputs apply a 20% withholding tax assumption to align with common Philippine time deposit tax treatment for planning purposes.

Short-Term vs Long-Term Growth Logic

For 3- and 6-month terms, the tool uses simple interest. For 1-year and longer terms, it uses annual compounding to project growth year by year.

Negotiated Rate Scenarios for Higher Deposits

Negotiated-rate scenarios can improve estimated rates for larger deposits. The tool applies +0.25% for ₱500,000 to under ₱1,000,000 and +0.50% for ₱1,000,000 and above.

Traditional vs Digital Comparison Strategy

Use Compare Mode to evaluate Traditional and Digital outcomes side-by-side using the same principal, term, and negotiated-rate setting.

Disclaimer and Decision Validation Checklist

This tool is educational and not affiliated with any bank. Confirm actual offers, eligibility, and final rates directly with your chosen financial institution.

Formula Breakdown

Short-term: Final = Principal + (Principal × Annual Rate × (Tenor Days / Day-Count Basis) × 0.8) | 1 year+: Final = Principal × (1 + Annual Rate × 0.8)^Years, with Day-Count Basis toggle (365 or 360).

Sample Computation

For ₱500,000 at 12 months, a 6% digital scenario applies 20% tax on interest and projects year-end value after net reinvestment.

FAQ

Does this use real-time bank rates?

No. It uses configurable market scenario rates for simulation and planning only, not official real-time rates.

Why is tax deducted from interest?

The simulation applies a 20% withholding tax on interest income, which is a common Philippine treatment for time deposits.

When does negotiated rate apply?

Negotiated-rate boosts apply for larger deposits in this simulation: +0.25% at ₱500,000+ and +0.50% at ₱1,000,000+.

Can I compare Traditional and Digital options directly?

Yes. Set Compare Mode to Yes and the results panel will show side-by-side key outputs for both scenarios.
