### Compound Interest Calculation Exercise

Use the compound interest formulas to determine the final value of the given amounts: 

#### Problem 1
1. **Initial Amount (Principal):** $850 
2. **Interest Rate:** 5% compounded daily 
3. **Time Period:** 18 years 

**Question:**
What is the final value of $850 at 5% compounded daily for 18 years?

**Solution Expression:**
The final value is $ \_\_\_\_ (rounded to the nearest cent as needed).

#### Problem 2
1. **Initial Amount (Principal):** $800 
2. **Interest Rate:** 6% compounded continuously 
3. **Time Period:** 10 years 

**Question:**
What is the final value of $800 at 6% compounded continuously for 10 years?

**Solution Expression:**
The final value is $ \_\_\_\_ (rounded to the nearest cent as needed).

### Explanation of Compound Interest
- **Daily Compounding:** When interest is compounded daily, the formula used is:
  \[ A = P \left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \]
  where:
  - \( P \) is the principal amount ($850)
  - \( r \) is the annual interest rate (5% or 0.05)
  - \( n \) is the number of times interest is compounded per year (365 for daily)
  - \( t \) is the time the money is invested for in years (18 years)
  - \( A \) is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.

- **Continuous Compounding:** When interest is compounded continuously, the formula used is:
  \[ A = Pe^{rt} \]
  where:
  - \( P \) is the principal amount ($800)
  - \( r \) is the annual interest rate (6% or 0.06)
  - \( t \) is the time the money is invested for in years (10 years)
  - \( e \) is the mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828
  - \( A \) is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.

**Note:** Ensure to round the final answers to the nearest cent as required.
