Answer:

$56,731.63

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Amount invested = $18,000

Rate of increase in value per year = 11% = 0.11

Time period, n = 11 years

Now,

The future value i.e the worth of his card after 11 years will be given as:

Future value = Amount invested × ( 1 + rate )ⁿ

on substituting the respective values, we get

Future value = $18,000 × ( 1 + 0.11 )¹¹

or

Future value = $18,000 × (1.11)¹¹

or

Future value = $18,000 × 3.1517573

or

Future value = $56,731.63
