Solution

Given the savings account, and solve for the interest:

Principal = $6,367

Interest rate = 14%

time = 4years

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 14/100

r = 0.14 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} A=6367(1+\frac{0.14}{1})^{(1)(4)} \\ A=6367(1+0.14)^4 \\ A=10753.61 \end{gathered}[/tex]

A = $10,753.61

Therefore the correct answer is $10,753.61 (nearest cent)
