Answer:

$ 2,544.84

Explanation:

A = $ 2,544.84

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 1,600.00

I (interest) = $ 944.84

Compound Interest Equation

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

Where:

A = Accrued Amount (principal + interest)

P = Principal Amount

I = Interest Amount

R = Annual Nominal Interest Rate in percent

r = Annual Nominal Interest Rate as a decimal

r = R/100

t = Time Involved in years, 0.5 years is calculated as 6 months, etc.

n = number of compounding periods per unit t; at the END of each period
