85860.39

85860.39

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 23, 589$ , $r = 5 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 26$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0125$ , $n t = 104$ , so the growth factor is $3.6398485726$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $23, 589$ × $3.6398485726$ = $85860.39$ .
