Answer:

it take 29.23 years, my salary to double.

Explanation:

To make the salary double I have to increase the value of salary by 100%. If inflation rate is 2.4 percent per year and salary increase the same rate the time period to make it double can be calculated as follow.

As every year 2.4% has compounding effect, so we will use compounding formula to solve this problem.

Target value = Existing value ( 1 + growth rate )^time period

200% = 100% ( 1 + 2.4% )^n

2 = 1 ( 1 + 0.024 )^n

2 = 1 ( 1.024 )^n

2 = 1.024^n

Taking log on both sides to solve the n

Log 2 = n Log 1.024

n = Log 2 / Log 1.024

n = 29.23 years

I will take 29.23 year to double the salary
