14612.74

14612.74

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 3, 291$ , $r = 5 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 30$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0125$ , $n t = 120$ , so the growth factor is $4.4402132289$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $3, 291$ × $4.4402132289$ = $14612.74$ .
