$$FV = P \times \left( \frac{(1 + r)^n – 1}{r} \right)$$
Where:
- $$FV$$ = Future Value
- $$P$$ = Regular Contribution
- $$r$$ = Interest Rate per Period
- $$n$$ = Number of Periods
Explanation:
This formula calculates the accumulated amount after making regular contributions into a savings or investment account, earning compound interest over time.
