Using compound interest, it is found that you will have $3,182.7.

Compound interest:

[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

  • A(t) is the amount of money after t years.  
  • P is the principal(the initial sum of money).  
  • r is the interest rate(as a decimal value).  
  • n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.  
  • t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this problem:

  • Compounded semiannually, hence [tex]n = 2[/tex].
  • 6% interest, hence [tex]r = 0.06[/tex].
  • Deposit of $3,000, hence [tex]P = 3000[/tex].
  • End of one year, hence [tex]t = 1[/tex].

Then:

[tex]A(1) = 3000\left(1 + \frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{2} = 3182.7[/tex]

You will have $3,182.7.
