Solution - Compound interest (basic)

33815.16

33815.16

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 23, 676$ , $r = 4 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 9$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.02$ , $n t = 18$ , so the growth factor is $1.4282462476$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $23, 676$ × $1.4282462476$ = $33815.16$ .
