Let P be the amount of invested money (P = 5,000), and iper cent a year the interest (i = 6).

After one year, the amount becomes P + (i/100)P. This equals P(1 + i/100), so that adding on i per cent is equivalent to multiplying by 1 + i/100.

When interest is compound annually, the new amount is used to calculate the interest due in the second year and so, after two years, the amount becomes P(1 + i/100)^2.

After n years, the amount becomes

P(1 + i/100)^n

which is the formula for compound interest.

So, after 5 years, the amount becomes

P(1 + i/100)^5

= 5,000(1 + 6/100)^5

= 5,000(1 + 0.06)^5

= 5,000(1.06)^5

= 6,691.127888

= 6,691.13

What is will 6000 for 6 years at 8½ percent compounded daily grow to?

If the annual equivalent rate of interest is 8.5 percent then it makes no difference how frequently it is compounded. The amount will grow to 9788.81 On the other hand 8.5 percent interest daily is equivalent to 8.7 trillion percent annually! If my calculation is correct, after 6 years the amount will have grown to 2.85*10198 (NB 10200 = googol squared).
