Continuous Growth Doubling Time from Supplied Positive Rate Calculator
Continuous Growth Doubling Time from Supplied Positive Rate. Example: Growth rate: 0.1 1/time gives 6.9314718056 time. Positive continuous exponential growth rate per abstract time unit, not discrete percentage return or Rule of72 estimate. Only this original stated job is proposed, not full historical source coverage. Input domains and output unit must be visible.
Positive continuous exponential growth rate per abstract time unit, not discrete percentage return or Rule of72 estimate. Only this original stated job is proposed, not full historical source coverage. Input domains and output unit must be visible. Derivation: Set2initial=initial exp(rate t), then solve t.
Accepted inputs: Growth rate: 0.0001 to 1 1/time.
Continuous Growth Doubling Time from Supplied Positive Rate
How the calculation works
doubling time=ln(2)/growth rate
Worked example
With growth rate 0.1 1/time, continuous growth doubling time from supplied positive rate is 6.931471806 time.
