    Value of Investment = Principal (1+Rate of return) ^Number of periods

    For the first investment the principal is 7,500, the rate of return is 11.5% and the number of periods are 5 so the value of the investment will be

    7,500 (1+0.115) ^5=12,925

    For the second investment the principal is 5,000, the rate of return is 11.5 and the number of periods are 3 as the 5,000 is invested two years from today.

    5,000 * (1+0.115) ^3=6,931

    Total value of investments = 12,925 + 6,931 = $19,856
