Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The calculation involves first finding the interest for the numerator and denominator separately and then dividing them. For the numerator, 8,600(1+0.092×155365)8,600(1+0.092 \times \frac{155}{365})8,600(1+0.092×365155) calculates the interest for 155 days at a 9.2% annual rate. For the denominator, 1+0.154×813651+0.154 \times \frac{81}{365}1+0.154×36581 calculates the interest for 81 days at a 15.4% annual rate. After performing the calculations, the result is approximately 8,640.69.
