23206.50

23206.50

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 19, 791$ , $r = 1 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 16$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.01$ , $n t = 16$ , so the growth factor is $1.1725786449$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $19, 791$ × $1.1725786449$ = $23206.50$ .
