Understanding Exponential Growth

Exponential growth is a process where a quantity increases over time at an increasing rate. It occurs when the growth rate of the quantity is proportional to the quantity itself. The formula for exponential growth is:

$$FV = IV \times (1 + GR)^{TP}$$

Where:

FV (Future Value): The value after time periods.
IV (Initial Value): The starting value.
GR (Growth Rate): The rate at which the quantity increases per period (expressed as a decimal).
TP (Time Periods): The number of periods over which the growth occurs.

Exponential growth is seen in various real-world scenarios such as population growth, compound interest in finance, and the spread of viruses. This calculator helps you quickly compute and visualize this growth.
