I have a querry regarding the computation of e ^ x [CA Final (New Syllabus), Strategic Financial Management, Valuation of Futures]. In calculation of Therotical Futures Price, we use the following formula:
TFP = Spot Price X e ^ (r x n) How to Calculate the value of "e" without using Log - Antilog tables?
Another Question: Will the Institute give us "Log Tables"? If yes, They will be "Common Log Tables" or "Natural Log Tables"?

my dear you can calculate e^x without log table in some cases when x is natural number(1,2,3,4......) e.g. e^4 type of value of e i.e. 2.71828 in calculater then press *(multiplication) then press = (4-1) times
if this is in fraction e.g. e^3.5 determine e^7 then determine sqrt of resut. e.g. e^2.25 detrmine e^9 then determine the sqrt of answer twice
