Hi  Oyinlola,

1. Account balance in savings constitutes both principal and interest
transactions.

Account Balance = Deposit + Interest Postings - Withdrawals- Charges(if any)

2. Mifos does support most of the standard Interest calculation methods, it
can be configured at savings products level using parameters like

1. Interest calculated using - which can be configured to calculate
between  "daily balance" or "daily AVG balance"
2. Interest compounding period - which can be set from daily to annually

Below documents would help you in understanding savings products and
interest configurations
