there are 16 compounding periods (2 * 8)
\n" ); document.write( "___ the interest is 6% per compounding (12% / 2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "p = 3590 (1 + .06)^16 = 9119.86\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "interest = p - 3590 = 9119.86 - 3590 = 5529.86
\n" ); document.write( "
