20390.07

20390.07

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 16, 041$ , $r = 1 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 24$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0008333333$ , $n t = 288$ , so the growth factor is $1.2711221023$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $16, 041$ × $1.2711221023$ = $20390.07$ .
