157640.33

157640.33

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 20, 808$ , $r = 15 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 14$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.075$ , $n t = 28$ , so the growth factor is $7.5759482436$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $20, 808$ × $7.5759482436$ = $157640.33$ .
