In 1626, peter minuit purchased manhatten island from the indians for beads and trinkets worth approx. $24. Supposed the indians invested the $24 in 1626 so that it returned 8% annually. Ignoring leap years what would the original investment of $24 be worth today? What would it be worth if the annual interest 8% were compounded monthly? daily? continuously?
