11714.81

11714.81

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 9, 508$ , $r = 11 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 2$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.11$ , $n t = 2$ , so the growth factor is $1.2321$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $9, 508$ × $1.2321$ = $11714.81$ .
