Note: If the periodic deposits do not coincide with the compounding periods, the
account must be evaluated in another manner. First, find the future value of the
initial deposits and store it. Then use the procedure for compounding periods
different from payment periods to calculate the future value of the periodic
deposits. Recall the future value of the initial deposit and add to obtain the value
of the account.
