Hello there. To solve this question, we'll need to remember some properties on investments.

The exact interest can be computed by the formula:

Principal * rate * time /365

In this case, we'll have:

13000 * 0.0825 * 210/365 = 617.05

The maturity value of the loan will be:

Principal + Interest owed

In this case,

13000 + 617.05

Add the values

$13617.05

This is the answer to this question.
