46875.92

46875.92

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 14, 154$ , $r = 5 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 24$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0041666667$ , $n t = 288$ , so the growth factor is $3.3118499244$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $14, 154$ × $3.3118499244$ = $46875.92$ .
