We are asked to determine the future value compounded quaterly. To do that we will use the following formula:


A=P(1+(r)/(4))^(4t)

Where:


\begin{gathered} A=\text{ future value} \\ P=\text{ deposit} \\ r=\text{ interest rate in decimal form} \\ t=\text{ time} \end{gathered}

Now, we plug in the values:


A=10500(1+(0.06)/(4))^(4(9))

Now, we solve the operations:


A=17945.97

Therefore, the future value is $17945.97.

To determine the interest we subtract the deposint from the future value:


I=17945.97-10500=7445.97

Therefore, the interest is $7445.97
