15944.83

15944.83

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 13, 895$ , $r = 14 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 1$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.035$ , $n t = 4$ , so the growth factor is $1.1475230006$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $13, 895$ × $1.1475230006$ = $15944.83$ .
