Solution - Compound interest (basic)

4569.02

4569.02

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 2, 777$ , $r = 10 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 5$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0083333333$ , $n t = 60$ , so the growth factor is $1.6453089348$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $2, 777$ × $1.6453089348$ = $4569.02$ .
