Jon deposits $15,000 in an account that earns 6% interest, compounded annually. No other deposits are made to the account. After 10 years, Jon decides to use the investment to purchase a new home. The purchase requires a down payment of $21,500. What is the balance of Jon's account after withdrawing the down payment? (to the nearest dollar)

15000+6%^10= 26862.71
26862.71-21500=5362.71
