amount = 600(1 + .05/4)^(4m)
b) A = 600(1.0125)^12 = ...
c) set A = 1400
1400 = 600(1.0125)^n, remember n is quarter years.
2.33333 = (1.0125)^n
do you know how to do logs? If so, ..
n = log 2.33333/log 1.0125 = 68.2 quarter years or about 17 years.
notice 17 years ---> n= 68
amount = 600(1.0125)^68 = $1396.41
so you will need about 68 and 1/4 years.
