Answer:

14.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

For compound interest amount at the end, we have formulae as

a) annually .. [tex]P(1+r)^n [/tex] where n is the no of years

quarterly .. [tex]P(1+0.5r)^{2n}[/tex]

Monthly  ..[tex]P(1+\frac{r}{12} )^{12n}[/tex]

b) Equate The formula there with P = 1000 to 2000

annually [tex]1000(1.12)^n =2000\\n = 6.15[/tex]

In apprxy 6 years and 2 months

Semi annually [tex]1.06^{2n} =2\\n = 5.95[/tex]

Or in 5 years 9 months

Quarterly

[tex]1.03^{4n} =2\\n=5.875[/tex]

C) In 5 years the money becomes double

i.e. [tex]1000(1+r)^5 =2000\\1+r = 1.14870\\r=14.87%[/tex]
