Base-Dependent Growth

Accumulation over a stated interval in which a positive retained base increases, and its positive net increment depends on the current base under the stated process conditions.

Includes

  1. Reinvested gains with a positive net proportional rate over the stated interval.
  2. Positive net increments proportional to the square root of a positive base: base-dependent but not exponential growth.

Excludes

  1. Base-dependent decay, including retaining 90 percent of the base each period.
  2. Zero net change, or gross gains outweighed by withdrawals or other losses.
  3. Fixed positive additions whose net increment does not depend on the accumulated base.
  4. An inference that every positive base-dependent process grows exponentially.
