In the bank means a taxable investment so the rule of 72 does not apply. It only works with tax deferred investments. But I guess if you don't claim it and cheat on your taxes it wouldn't make a difference any way |

It would double just as fast as you could deposit another $200.
Just think, if you had around $800,000 in a passbook account you could earn around $1600 month. Better start looking for other ways to make money, saving wont cut it. At $200 a month it will only take you around 300 years. At $400 month 150 Years, at $800 month $75 years, at $1600 month 35 years.

well it depends on the banks interest rate |

That depends on how often it *ahem* "doubled" by 18% and whether the interest is compound or simple. Give us more information and we can answer your problem (which DOES sound like math homework) more completely. |

1.18 ^ t = 2
log 2 / log 1.18 = 4.18 years. |

Well that would depend on if its 18% per month, 6 months or a year.
If its a year heres the math to find out how much 18%
200(18)=$36.00
So in 1 year you would get $236.00 thus making $36.00 |

Rule of 72 - divide 72 by the interest rate and you get the number of years it takes to double your money. At 18% - your money will double in 4 years. |

Same rule of 72 when you asked the same question, but at 7%.
18 goes into 72 4 times, so 4 years. |
