Anne Katz, the owner of Katz Sport Shop, lends $8,000 to Shelley Slater to help her open an art shop. Shelley plans to repay Anne at the end of eight years with interest compounded semiannually at 8%. At the end of eight years, Anne will receive (use the tables in the handbook):
$14,984
$16,857
$16,587
$14,484
