717985.18

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 14, 889$ , $r = 15 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 26$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0125$ , $n t = 312$ , so the growth factor is $48.2225251931$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $14, 889$ × $48.2225251931$ = $717985.18$ .
