Solution - Compound interest (basic)

6438.75

6438.75

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 2, 873$ , $r = 9 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 9$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0075$ , $n t = 108$ , so the growth factor is $2.2411241722$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $2, 873$ × $2.2411241722$ = $6438.75$ .
