19136.42

19136.42

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 14, 229$ , $r = 10 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 3$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.025$ , $n t = 12$ , so the growth factor is $1.3448888242$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $14, 229$ × $1.3448888242$ = $19136.42$ .
