14375.37

14375.37

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 8, 927$ , $r = 3 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 16$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.015$ , $n t = 32$ , so the growth factor is $1.6103243202$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $8, 927$ × $1.6103243202$ = $14375.37$ .
