Formula Nature & Mechanics
Exponential Compounding Growth: Returns generate subsequent returns over time t, rapidly accelerating capital growth.
Common Mistakes & Traps
- Entering annual percentage rate (e.g. 7%) as 7 instead of converting to decimal 0.07.
- Neglecting the compounding frequency (n): monthly compounding produces higher yield than annual.
- Ignoring inflation drag when evaluating long-term nominal returns.

Worked Example: Tutoring Cost
Given:
- rate = 40
- hoursPerWeek = 2
- weeks = 12
- Total Cost = 40 × 2 × 12
- Total Cost = 960
Answer: 960
