Solution - Compound interest (basic)

36720.14

36720.14

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 2, 160$ , $r = 12 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 25$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.12$ , $n t = 25$ , so the growth factor is $17.0000644066$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $2, 160$ × $17.0000644066$ = $36720.14$ .
