15879.81

15879.81

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 4, 854$ , $r = 10 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 12$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.025$ , $n t = 48$ , so the growth factor is $3.2714895607$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $4, 854$ × $3.2714895607$ = $15879.81$ .
