Solution - Compound interest (basic)

13271.72

13271.72

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 5, 147$ , $r = 7 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 14$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.07$ , $n t = 14$ , so the growth factor is $2.5785341502$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $5, 147$ × $2.5785341502$ = $13271.72$ .
