The function of a money market savings account is to earn a higher interest on your balance. Interest is based on current rates in the money markets. A minimum balance is usually required for investment.
The minimum investment required to invest in a mutual fund can vary depending on the fund, but it typically ranges from 500 to 3,000.
Its income is derived from assessments on deposits held by insured banks and from interest on the required investment of its surplus funds in government securities. It also has authority to borrow from the Treasury

Approx 44.225 % The exact value is 100*[3^(1/3) - 1] %
It is approx 8.66%
(2)1/21 = 1.03356 (rounded)That's an annual interest of 3.356 percent.Let's try it:(1.03356)21 = 2.00009 on my calculator, which is pretty close.

(1+x)10 = 310 log(1+x) = log(3)log(1+x) = 0.1 log(3)(1+x) = 10[0.1 log(3)] = 1.116123x = .116123 = 11.61 percent
We still need to know how often the interest is compounded ... Weekly ? Daily ? Hourly ? What does "continuous" mean ?
A good jumbo CD rate would be over 5% and one must be careful to find out how often the interest will be compounded. Also important is the minimum investment amount that would be required.
3.73% would do it almost exactly: Where p is the original investment and i is the rate of interest: 3p = p((1 + i/100) to the power of 30) dividing by p gives ((1 + i/100) to the power 30) = 3 using logarithms (log 3)/30 = 1 + i/100 antilog (0.47712/30) = 1 + i/100 antilog 0.0159 = 1 + i/100 1.037299 = 1 + i/100 0.037299 = i/100 i = 3.7299 Later: I tested this on Excel with capital of 5000 and interest rate of 3.73% and after 30 years investment was worth 15000.35!
Future Value = (Present Value)*(1 + i)^n {i is interest rate per compounding period, and n is the number of compounding periods} Memorize this.So if you want to double, then (Future Value)/(Present Value) = 2, and n = 16.2 = (1 + i)^16 --> 2^(1/16) = 1 + i --> i = 2^(1/16) - 1 = 0.044274 = 4.4274 %
If it is compounded annually, then: F = P*(1 + i)^t {F is final value, P is present value, and i is interest rate, t is time}.So if it triples, F/P = 3, and 12 years: t = 12, so we have 3 = (1 + i)^12, solve for i using logarithms (any base log will do, but I'll use base 10):log(3) = log((1+i)^12) = 12*log(1+i)(log(3))/12 = log(1+i).Now take 10 raised to both sides: 10^((log(3))/12) = 10^log(1+i) = 1 + ii = 10^((log(3))/12) - 1 = 0.095873So a rate of 9.5873 % (compounded annually) will triple the investment in 12 years.
the equation for compound interest is Pe^(rt) the principal you want in the end is twice that of the original 12,000 plugging in and solving you get 12,000=6000e^(.13t) t = 5.33 years
required rate of return is the 'interest' that investors expect from an investment project. coupon rate is the interest that investors receive periodically as a reward from investing in a bond
