Section 9-1 The Constant e and Continuous


Compound Interest
Goal: To work with the constant e and solve continuous compound problems

Definition: The number e

n
æ 1ö 1
e = lim ç1 + ÷ or e = lim (1 + s ) s
n® ¥ è nø s® 0

Theorem 1: Continuous Compound Interest Formula

If a principal P is invested at an annual rate r (expressed as a decimal) compounded


continuously, then the amount A in the account at the end of t years is given by:

A = Pert .

1. Use a calculator to evaluate A to the nearest cent.

A  700e0.05t for t = 3, 6, 9

4 = e0.07t

3. Solve for r to two decimal places.

7  e3r

4. Bank A offers a 3-year CD that earns 2.05% compounded continuously.

a) If $5,000 is invested in this CD, how much will it be worth in 5 years?

5. A bond will be worth $25,000 at maturity 10 years from now. How much should you
be willing to pay for the bond now if money is worth 2.6% compounded
continuously?

6. A woman invests $18,000 in an account that pays 2.9% compounded continuously. If


the woman needs $21,000, how long will it take to accumulate that much money?
