Complete the table for an investment if interest is compounded continuously. Deposi Annual Rate Doubling Time Amount in 30 yr 1500 9.3 al Deposi Annual Rate Doubling Time (y Amount n 30 yr 1500 9.3 How much money must you invest now at 4.5% interest compounded continuously in order to have $10.000 at the end of 4 years? You must inves s 5 yr om now. Assuming that money can be invested at 6.2% with interest compounded continuously, what is the present value of that years salary? An athlete signs a contract that guarantees a $14-million salary

Explanation / Answer

applying continuous compounding formula

A = P e^rt

initial deposit = 1500

rate = 9.3%

doubling amount = 2* 1500

2* 1500 = 1500 e^ (.093)t

2 = e^ (.093)t

ln 2 = .093t

t = 7.45 years ( doubling time )

amount in 30 year

A = 1500 e^ (.093* 30 )

A = $ 24421.53

2) A = 10,000

rate = 4.5%

time = 4 years

10,000 = P e^(.045*4 )

P = 10,000 / e^(.045*4)

P = 8354.22

therefore, $ 8354.22 must be invested to have $ 10,000 at the end of 4 years
