Line 13:

*[[compound interest]]: <math>a(t)=(1+i)^t</math>

*[[simple discount]]: <math>a(t) = (1-d*t)</math>

*[[compound discount]]: <math>a(t) = (1-d)^{(-t)}</math>

In the case of a positive [[rate of return]], as in the case of interest, the accumulation function is an [[increasing function]].
