I think the second part of your question is missing
This is just like an exponential growth equation...
Final=initial*rate^periods
25000=12500(1.0525)^t
2=1.0525^t
ln2=t ln1.0525
t=ln2/ln1.0525
t=13.55
t=14 yrs
10
x.25<------ 2 decimals
_____

+200
______
250<----move the decimal 2 times to the right
the answer is 2.5
