Determine when, to the nearest year, $1,000 invested at 5% per year, compounded daily, will be worth $10,000
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "A(t) = P(1+(r/n))^(n*t)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "10,000 = 1000(1+0.05/365))^(365t)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "10 = 1.000136986^(365t)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "365t = log(10)/log(1.000136986) = 1/0.000059488 = 16810.11
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "t (to the nearest year) = 46 years\r
