74315.80

74315.80

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 14, 197$ , $r = 6 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 28$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.03$ , $n t = 56$ , so the growth factor is $5.2346130494$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $14, 197$ × $5.2346130494$ = $74315.80$ .
