Solution - Compound interest (basic)

235334.15

235334.15

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 24, 836$ , $r = 11 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 21$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.055$ , $n t = 42$ , so the growth factor is $9.4755254982$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $24, 836$ × $9.4755254982$ = $235334.15$ .
