For a loan that accrues daily and compounds yearly with a 10% annual interest rate, why is 100*(1+.10)^1.5 equal to 115.369, and not 115.50?
Does the future value formula not work when trying to calculate compounded interest intra-period? Does the number of periods have to be an integer?
This is a real-world problem. I'm trying to value (at an intra-period point of time) a preferred stock that pays 8% annual interest that accrues daily and compounds yearly.
