Answer:

$ 142 375

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking process:

Let the composite rate be given by the formula:


A = P (1+(r)/(n))^(nt)

where

A = amount after interest


(r)/(n) = interest rate

t = time

n = number of times (per year)

Therefore, this gives:


A =134 000 (1+(0.75)/(12))^(1)\\ = $ 142 375
