The formula to calculate the Doubling Time (DT) is:
\[ DT = \frac{\log_{10}(2)}{\log_{10}(1 + \frac{\%RoR}{100})} \]
Where:
Doubling Time is the length of time required to double an investment or money in an interest-bearing account.
Rate of Return is the gain or loss on an investment over a specified time period, expressed as a percentage of the investment’s cost.
Let's assume the following value:
Using the formula:
\[ DT = \frac{\log_{10}(2)}{\log_{10}(1 + \frac{\%RoR}{100})} \]
Evaluating:
\[ DT = \frac{\log_{10}(2)}{\log_{10}(1 + \frac{4.5}{100})} \]
The Doubling Time is 15.7473018364856.
