Compound interest.... by MrTrick 2004-12-14 19:51:33
A = P*multiplier
multiplier = [1+(r/t)]^(n*t)

Where r = rate, n = number of years, t = number of times compounded per year.

Anyone bored and feel like calculating the limit of multiplier in terms of r and n as t -> infinity? (ie interest compounded every week, every day, every hour, every second...)

(No, it's not a homework question, I'm just bored at work)
