Help! CA Final (N) -> Futures -> Calculating TFP


This query is : Resolved 

(Querist)
06 January 2011 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"?
