There will be a parameter n.  say n=10 means i have add 10% of previous
value to the current row

100                   100
200                    210 (200+10)
300                    330( 300 +20+10)

One solution is:
A <- 1:4 * 100
A + cumsum(c(0, A[-length(A)]) * 0.1)
[1] 100 210 330 460


Hope this helps

Thanks it helped a lot
