There is no conventional way to interpret results based on a non-integer
value (5.83) of
N
. Since the calculated value of
N
is between 5 and 6,
it will take 6 years of annual compounding to achieve a balance of at
least $3,000. The actual balance at the end of 6 years can be
calculated as follows:

Example: An Individual Retirement Account (IRA).
You opened an IRA
on April 15, 2003, with a deposit of $2,000. Thereafter, you deposit
$80.00 into the account at the end of each half-month. The account
pays 8.3% annual interest, compounded semimonthly. How much
money will the account contain on April 15, 2018
