\(28\ 800\times (1+0.089525)\times 3=94\ 135\)

This is the FV of an ordinary annuity. You would use this formula to calculate it.

FV=P{[1 + R]^N - 1/ R}

 

FV =28,800 x {[1 + 0.087]^3 - 1 / [0.087]}

FV =28,800 x {[1.087]^3 - 1 / [0.087]}

FV =28,800 x                    3.268569

FV =$94,134.79

Your formula is wrong you were supposed to divide by 0.087

 

28800(1+0.087)^3-1 = 36988.7264864

 

but

28800((1+0.087)^3-1)/0.087 = 94134.7872
