compounding.
Solution
The answer iscompounding.
Future value of an investment can be calculated using the concept of compounding. We know that in compounding interest, amount = principal *(1+r/100)^n where r = the rate and n = number of years.
Similarly when calculating the future value of an investment, we will use the formula: Future value = initial investment*(1+r/100)^n
Suppose you make an investment of $1000 in time period 0 in a fund that offers a rate of 10% per year. The value of this investment, after 10 years, will be:
1000*(1+10/100)^10
= 1000*2.59374
= $2,593.74
