FV using force of interest and annual interest

vendredi 6 février 2015

The problem is:



Percy invests continuously at a rate of 100 per annum for 40 years in a fund earning 5% per annum compounded continuously. At the end of 60 years, X is in the fund. There are no withdrawals.

Determine X.





if I convert delta to i using delta = ln(1+i)

and use 100*Sn_40 * (1+i)^20

but the answer is different from if I use 100*S_continuously * e^(delta*20)





Can anyone explain to me the logic behind this? as in why can't I calculate using the annual rate.

And if I want to calculate using annual rate, how do I do it?
