Answer:$14701

Step-by-step explanation:

1) at the end of the first year the account will be 1*(12 000)+0,07*(12 000)=1,07*12 000,

2) at the end of the second year 1*(1.07*12 000) + 0.07*(1.07*12 000) = 1.1449*12 000,

3) at the end of the third year 1*(1,1449*12 000) + 0.07*(1,1449*12 000) = 1.225*12 000 = 14,700.516 = 14701
