119478.36

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 21, 050$ , $r = 11 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 16$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0275$ , $n t = 64$ , so the growth factor is $5.6759316248$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $21, 050$ × $5.6759316248$ = $119478.36$ .
