58628.90

58628.90

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 10, 168$ , $r = 11 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 16$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0091666667$ , $n t = 192$ , so the growth factor is $5.7660212995$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $10, 168$ × $5.7660212995$ = $58628.90$ .
