147148.50

147148.50

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 6, 161$ , $r = 12 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 28$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.12$ , $n t = 28$ , so the growth factor is $23.8838664867$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $6, 161$ × $23.8838664867$ = $147148.50$ .
