46307.25

46307.25

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 14, 017$ , $r = 10 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 12$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0083333333$ , $n t = 144$ , so the growth factor is $3.3036489675$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $14, 017$ × $3.3036489675$ = $46307.25$ .
