Solution - Compound interest (basic)

14319.14

14319.14

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 14, 037$ , $r = 1 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 2$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.01$ , $n t = 2$ , so the growth factor is $1.0201$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $14, 037$ × $1.0201$ = $14319.14$ .
