Jakki got a new job that guarantees her a 6% raise every year. If she started out making $40,000, how long will it be before she doubles her current salary?

PV=40000; FV=80000; P=0;R=0.06; a= (log(FV/PV) )/log(R + 1);print"N =",a

 

N = 11.89566105 =~12 years to double her salary.

80000 = 40000 (1+.06)n       solve for 'n'

2 = 1.06n

log2 / log 1.06 = n    = .......... years
