Solution - Compound interest (basic)

7294.46

7294.46

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 3, 708$ , $r = 4 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 17$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.01$ , $n t = 68$ , so the growth factor is $1.9672222021$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $3, 708$ × $1.9672222021$ = $7294.46$ .
