"Leader" real GDP per capita = $40,000, "follower" real GDP per capita = $20,000. If the growth of real GDP per capita falls to zero percent in the leader country and rises to 7 percent in the follower country, it will take for the follower country to catch up to the living standard of the leader country t years. 20,000*1.07^t = 40,000 t = log1.07(2) = 10.2 years.

I appreciate the site services immensely, and it serves the purpose for what I need. However, honest feedback, I do find some of the college level writing less than adequate. The word's usage being weak and not very succinct thesis's or formatting seemed something I'd have to go back through the assignment and fix. That said, highly recommend still.
