Solution - Compound interest (basic)

26108.10

26108.10

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 12, 810$ , $r = 9 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 8$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0225$ , $n t = 32$ , so the growth factor is $2.0381030258$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $12, 810$ × $2.0381030258$ = $26108.10$ .
