How exponential growth works

Exponential growth means the amount grows by the same percentage each period. The standard model is A = P(1+r)^t, where P is the starting value, r is the decimal rate, and t is the number of periods.

What the preview teaches

The curve starts gently and bends upward because each new increase is applied to a larger base than before. The highlighted point marks the exact future value at your selected time.
