14805.88

14805.88

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 13, 944$ , $r = 1 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 6$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0008333333$ , $n t = 72$ , so the growth factor is $1.0618100157$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $13, 944$ × $1.0618100157$ = $14805.88$ .
