49521.93

49521.93

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 5, 123$ , $r = 12 %$ , $n = 12$ , $t = 19$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.01$ , $n t = 228$ , so the growth factor is $9.6665883013$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $5, 123$ × $9.6665883013$ = $49521.93$ .
