Okay, here we have this:

Considering the provided information we are going to replace in the following formula:


\begin{gathered} A=P\mleft(1+(r)/(n)\mright)^(nt) \\ A=60000(1+0.05)^(1\cdot10) \\ A=60000(1.05)^(10) \\ A\approx$97,733.68$ \end{gathered}

Finally we obtain that the amount of money after 10 years will be $97,733.68
