Answer:

After six years, account balance will be $11546.87

Explanation:

Given

Principal amount, P = $4848

rate of interest, r = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15

no. of times interest compounded per year, n = 2

times, t = 6 years

To find : Account balance, A = ?

We know that the formula to calculate final amount when interest in compounded is:

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

Substituting the known values in above formula, we get

A = 4848 *
(1 + (0.15)/(2) )^(2*6)

= 4848 *
(1 + 0.075 )^(12)

= 4848 * 2.382

= $11546.87
