    The correct answer is C) 653,201

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In order to calculate out this, start with the base cost. You then can make an exponential equation using the percentage. Since it will be 103.5% of the previous year's cost, raise that to the variable.

    f (x) = 276,400 (1.035) ^x

    In this equation, x is the number of years. So we can plug 25 in for that variable and then calculate.

    f (x) = 276,400 (1.035) ^25

    f (x) = 276,400 (2.363)

    f (x) = 653,201

    y = 653201.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can use the formula

    y = ab^x

    where a = initial amount and b = 1+growth rate (in decimal form) and x = number of years

    a = 276400

    b = 1+.035

    x = 25

    y = 276400 (1+.035) ^25

    y = 276400 (1.035) ^25

    y = 653201.
