Question

For a present value PV invested at a constant continuously compounded annual rate r for t years, which expression gives the future value?

The correct answer is

\(PV\,e^{rt}\)

Under continuous compounding, \(FV=PV\,e^{rt}\). It follows from \(\lim_{m\to\infty}PV\left(1+\frac{r}{m}\right)^{mt}=PV\,e^{rt}\), where r is expressed as a decimal annual rate.
