Solution - Compound interest (basic)

45960.20

45960.20

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 10, 446$ , $r = 5 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 30$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.025$ , $n t = 60$ , so the growth factor is $4.3997897488$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $10, 446$ × $4.3997897488$ = $45960.20$ .
