If $10,000 is invested at an interest rate of 2% per year, compounded semiannually, find the value of the investment after the given number of years. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
-------
Note:: The "given # of years" was not given.
----
Assuming that number was 5 you would get:
A(5) = 10,000(1+(0.02/2))^(2*5)
A(5) = 10,000(1.01)^10 = $11046.22
