Solution - Compound interest (basic)

15732.42

15732.42

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 8, 322$ , $r = 4 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 16$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.01$ , $n t = 64$ , so the growth factor is $1.8904618695$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $8, 322$ × $1.8904618695$ = $15732.42$ .
