The current price of a stock is $400 per share and it pays no dividends. Assuming a constant interest rate of 8% per year compounded quarterly, what is the stock's theoretical forward price for delivery in 9 months?

The formula is
A=p (1+r/k)^kt
A future value?
P current price 400
R interest rate 0.08
K compounded quarterly 4
T time 9/12

A=400×(1+0.08÷4)^(4×(9÷12))
A=424.48
