45595.46

45595.46

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 22, 669$ , $r = 15 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 5$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.15$ , $n t = 5$ , so the growth factor is $2.0113571875$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $22, 669$ × $2.0113571875$ = $45595.46$ .
