Answer:

= $ 11,089.19

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula A = Pe^(r*t).

Where A is the accrued amount,

r is the annual nominal rate of interest as a decimal,

P is the principal amount, and

t is the time involved in years

Therefore;

A = Pe^(r*t).

r = 0.06; P = 3340; t = 20.

A = 3340 × e^(0.06×20)

= 11,089.19

= $11,089.19
