Answer:  As the compounding increases more frequently, the amount of return also increases.   f)        If a bank compounds continuous, then the formula becomes simpler, that is where e is a constant and equals approximately 2.7183.

Answer:  ,425.02 Show work in this space                                                                            = 20,000 (2.7183)^ (0.08)(3)                                         = 25,425.02   g)      Now suppose, instead of knowing t, we know that the bank returned to us ,000 with the bank compounding continuously. Using logarithms, find how long we left the money in the bank (find t). Answer:  2.79 years Show work in this space                                                                  25,000 = 20,000e0.08t                                 25,000/20,000 = e0.08t                                                           1.25 = e0.08t                                                     ln 1.25 = ln e0.08t                                                            ln 1.25  = 0.08t                                           t = ln 1.25/ 0.08                                            t = 2.79 years h)      A commonly asked question is, “How long will it take to double my money?” At 8% interest rate and continuous compounding, what is the answer? Answer: 8.66 years ≈ 9 years  Show work in this space.                                 t @ A = 2P                                              using                                                      2P = Pe0.08t                                                        2 = e0.08t                                                       ln 2 = 0.08t                                                      t = (ln 2)/ 0.08                                                      t = 8.66 years ≈ 9 years 4)      For a fixed rate, a fixed principal amount, and a fixed compounding cycle, the return is an exponential function of time.

Answer: 3   b)      Most calculators have 2 different logs on them: log, which is base 10, and ln, which is base e. In computer science, digital computers are based on the binary numbering system which means that there are only 2 numbers available to the computer, 0 and 1. When a computer scientist needs a logarithm, he needs a log to base 2 which is not on any calculator. To find the log of a number to any base, we can use a conversion formula as shown here: Using this formula, find .
