18703.93

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 13, 061$ , $r = 6 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 6$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.005$ , $n t = 72$ , so the growth factor is $1.4320442785$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $13, 061$ × $1.4320442785$ = $18703.93$ .
