Answer

$ \$ 1246.08$

Work Step by Step

Recall: Continuous Compounding Formula $$A = P e^{r t}$$ where $P:$ The principal amount $r:$ Annual interest rate $t:$ Number of years $A:$ Amount after $t$ years The given problem has: $P= \$ 1000, r = 0.11, t=2$ Thus, using these values and the formula above gives: $A = 1000 \times e^{0.11 \times 2}$ $A \approx \$ 1246.08$
