Solution - Compound interest (basic)

14530.44

14530.44

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 9, 554$ , $r = 15 %$ , $n = 1$ , $t = 3$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.15$ , $n t = 3$ , so the growth factor is $1.520875$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $9, 554$ × $1.520875$ = $14530.44$ .
