54488.33

54488.33

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 7, 263$ , $r = 13 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 16$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.065$ , $n t = 32$ , so the growth factor is $7.5021794613$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $7, 263$ × $7.5021794613$ = $54488.33$ .
