146408.19

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 23, 142$ , $r = 11 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 17$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0275$ , $n t = 68$ , so the growth factor is $6.3265140559$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $23, 142$ × $6.3265140559$ = $146408.19$ .
