10253.26

10253.26

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 5, 921$ , $r = 8 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 7$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.04$ , $n t = 14$ , so the growth factor is $1.7316764476$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $5, 921$ × $1.7316764476$ = $10253.26$ .
