Answer:

c. 10.17%

Explanation:

we can use the future value formula:

future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ

  • future value = $19,600,000
  • present value = $8,200,000
  • n = 9

$19,600,000 = $8,200,000 x (1 + r)⁹

$19,600,000 / $8,200,000 = (1 + r)⁹

(1 + r)⁹ = 2.390243902

⁹√(1 + r)⁹ = ⁹√2.390243902⁹√

1 + r = 1.101663943

r = 1.101663943 - 1 = 0.101663943 = 10.17%
