Solution - Compound interest (basic)

111610.71

111610.71

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 8, 828$ , $r = 10 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 26$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.05$ , $n t = 52$ , so the growth factor is $12.6428082638$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $8, 828$ × $12.6428082638$ = $111610.71$ .
