Continuously compounded interest uses the equation:

A(t) = Pe^(rt)

You have $8264 to invest (P) in an account at 4% interest (r = 0.04) for 18 years (t).

Solve for the unknown:

A(18) = 8264e^(0.04 * 18)
A(18) = 8264e^(0.72)

Starting the next step I'll round to 6 or 7 DP but won't in my calculator to reduce errors due to rounding:

A(18) = 8264(2.054433)
A(18) = $16,977.84 (rounded to nearest penny)
