Answer:  $106,300

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P(1 + r)

  • A is the accrued amount (balance)
  • P is the principal (initial amount)
  • r is the rate --> convert to a decimal

Given: P = 96,812    r = 9.8% --> 0.098

A = 96,812(1 + 0.098)

   = 96,812(1.098)

   = 106,299.576

rounded to the nearest dollar is $106,300
