can anyone tell me how to manually compute a savings goal for a problem such as this:

reach a goal of $6000 in 2 years with an interest rate of 5% with daily and monthly compounding, while you have $100 to spare for your first deposit.

another words, http://www.bankrate.com/calculators/...alculator.aspx

how can i manually calculate the monthly, daily, weekly deposit, using the information that is asked for?

thank you so much, id greatly appreciate any help i can get
