207024.27

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 12, 961$ , $r = 13 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 22$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.065$ , $n t = 44$ , so the growth factor is $15.9728620944$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $12, 961$ × $15.9728620944$ = $207024.27$ .
