Answer:

$60,473

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking to determine the future value.

FV = A × annuity factor

Annuity factor = { [(1+r) ^n] - 1 } / r

FV = Future value

A = amount

R = interest rate

N = number of years

{[(1 + 0.039)^43 ] - 1 } / 0.039 = 107.221939

$564 x 107.221939 = $60,473.17

I hope my answer helps you
