71695.39

71695.39

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 19, 835$ , $r = 11 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 12$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.055$ , $n t = 24$ , so the growth factor is $3.6145899039$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $19, 835$ × $3.6145899039$ = $71695.39$ .
