\(\boxed{A = \$2744.26}\)

Steps

Step 1 :\(A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}\)

Step 2 :\(A = 1500(1 + \frac{0.066}{1})^{1*10}\)

Step 3 :\(A = 1500 * 1.8197008586099825\)

Step 4 :\(\boxed{A = \$2730.55}\)

Step 5 :\(A = 1500(1 + \frac{0.066}{2})^{2*10}\)

Step 6 :\(A = 1500 * 1.824567067879172\)

Step 7 :\(\boxed{A = \$2736.85}\)

Step 8 :\(A = 1500(1 + \frac{0.066}{4})^{4*10}\)

Step 9 :\(A = 1500 * 1.827125820891125\)

Step 10 :\(\boxed{A = \$2740.69}\)

Step 11 :\(A = 1500(1 + \frac{0.066}{12})^{12*10}\)

Step 12 :\(A = 1500 * 1.828476014536334\)

Step 13 :\(\boxed{A = \$2742.71}\)

Step 14 :\(A = 1500(1 + \frac{0.066}{365})^{365*10}\)

Step 15 :\(A = 1500 * 1.8295065829545702\)

Step 16 :\(\boxed{A = \$2744.26}\)
