The excessive frequency of compounding is generally continuous compounding where the interest is compounded immediately. The data for continuous compounding for one year is e^APR here e is 2.71828 that is the base of the natural logarithm. So the future value of an amount which is compounded for n years is:

FV = PV x e^kn

Here k is annual percentage rate and e^kn is the compound factor.
