Solution - Compound interest (basic)

43529.12

43529.12

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 23, 098$ , $r = 8 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 8$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.02$ , $n t = 32$ , so the growth factor is $1.8845405921$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $23, 098$ × $1.8845405921$ = $43529.12$ .
