Value of investment today = 1269.2886 rounded off to 1269.29

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of investment today ccan be calculated by multiplying the investment by the returns received over the periods. We can calculate the value of investment as follows,

Value of investment today = Initial Investment * (1 + return in first year) *

(1 + return in second year) * (1 + return in third year)

Value of investment today = 996 * (1+4.62%) * (1+6.73%) * (1+14.13%)

Value of investment today = 1269.2886 rounded off to 1269.29
