FV = Pe^Yr
where FV = future value = 1,000,000
r here = .05
Y = 25
1,000,000 = P e^(1.25)
P = 1,000,000 / 3.49
P = 286,533

dP/dt = r P
dP/P = r dt
ln P = r t
e^ln P = e^(rt) + C
P = C e^(rt)
when t = 0, e^(rt) = 1
so C = value of P when t = 0
so
P = Po e^(rt)
How do I find the continuous rate though?
Oh, sorry
Try this, sinking fund "Continuous compounding at nominal rate r, uniform series"
