Suppose that $5658 is invested at an interest rate of 35% per year, compounded continuously. What is the account balance after 32 years?


Using \(\displaystyle P=P_0e^{kt}\) gives \(\displaystyle P=5658e^{\frac{7 t}{20}}\). Evaluating at \(\displaystyle t=32\) gives \(\displaystyle P=413772040\) dollars.
