Solution - Compound interest (basic)

50391.36

50391.36

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 16, 655$ , $r = 6 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 19$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.06$ , $n t = 19$ , so the growth factor is $3.0255995021$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $16, 655$ × $3.0255995021$ = $50391.36$ .
