<span>Compound  interest  formula</span>

A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

 

Where

<span>
A= Future value
P = the Principal (the initial amount of money) 
r = annual interest rate</span>

t = time

<span>n= number of times compounded in one t






Remark
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

r is generally a percentage like 3%, 7% etc and are applied in the formula as 0.03, 0.07..., 

the interest is compounded generally annually (n=1), quarterly (n=4), monthly (n=12), etc...

t is in years,


In our problem:

</span>

A= 30 000

P =20 000

r = 15%=0.15

time = t = ?

n= 4

applying the formula:

A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}\\\\30,000=20,000(1+ \frac{0.15}{4} )^{4t}\\\\ \displaystyle{\frac{30,000}{20,000} =(1.0375)^{4t}

\displaystyle{ 1.5={(1.0375^4)}^t\\\\

1.5=1.159^t\\\\ \displaystyle { t=log_{1.159}1.5=2.75
