14495.09

14495.09

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 13, 653$ , $r = 2 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 3$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.005$ , $n t = 12$ , so the growth factor is $1.0616778119$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $13, 653$ × $1.0616778119$ = $14495.09$ .
