Question
Question 5: Putting all this information together, can you give a formula that would compute
the amount of money earned if we invest a principle P using annual interest r over t years and
we compound infinitely many times over the year? Give this formula. This is called continuously
compounded interest. Compute the amount we get for investing $10,000 for 20 years at an annual
rate of 0.5% and continuously compound. Discuss how you derived your formula.
The above was one of many applications of limits. We will now change gears and look at limits
more broadly.
