Derivation

1. Split input into 3 regimes

2. if i < -0.00169341748709232894

   1. Initial program 29.4

      \[100 \cdot \frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]
   2. Using strategy rm

   3. Applied flip-- 29.4

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} \cdot {\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1 \cdot 1}{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} + 1}}}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

   4. Simplified 29.3

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{\left(2 \cdot n\right)} + \left(-1 \cdot 1\right)}}{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} + 1}}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

   if -0.00169341748709232894 < i < 4.57462941236903202e-4

   1. Initial program 58.1

      \[100 \cdot \frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

   2. Taylor expanded around 0 26.8

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{\left(1 \cdot i + \left(0.5 \cdot {i}^{2} + \log 1 \cdot n\right)\right) - 0.5 \cdot \left({i}^{2} \cdot \log 1\right)}}{\frac{i}{n}}\]
   3. Using strategy rm

   4. Applied associate-/r/ 9.1

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \color{blue}{\left(\frac{\left(1 \cdot i + \left(0.5 \cdot {i}^{2} + \log 1 \cdot n\right)\right) - 0.5 \cdot \left({i}^{2} \cdot \log 1\right)}{i} \cdot n\right)}\]

   if 4.57462941236903202e-4 < i

   1. Initial program 30.7

      \[100 \cdot \frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]
   2. Using strategy rm

   3. Applied associate-*r/ 30.6

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{100 \cdot \left({\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1\right)}{\frac{i}{n}}}\]
3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

4. Final simplification 16.8

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;i \le -0.00169341748709232894:\\ \;\;\;\;100 \cdot \frac{\frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{\left(2 \cdot n\right)} + \left(-1 \cdot 1\right)}{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} + 1}}{\frac{i}{n}}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;i \le 4.57462941236903202 \cdot 10^{-4}:\\ \;\;\;\;100 \cdot \left(\frac{\left(1 \cdot i + \left(0.5 \cdot {i}^{2} + \log 1 \cdot n\right)\right) - 0.5 \cdot \left({i}^{2} \cdot \log 1\right)}{i} \cdot n\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{100 \cdot \left({\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1\right)}{\frac{i}{n}}\\ \end{array}\]
