Let's calculate the total donation.

  1. Calculate the donation for each year from 2010 to 2013.

    We know the donation in 2010 was $700,000. The annual increase is 8%.

    • 2010: $700,000
    • 2011: 700,000×(1+0.08)=700,000 × (1 + 0.08) = 700,000 × 1.08 = $756,000
    • 2012: 756,000×1.08=756,000 × 1.08 = 816,480 (as calculated previously)
    • 2013: 816,480×1.08=816,480 × 1.08 = 881,798.40
  2. Sum the donations for all four years.

    Total Donation = Donation(2010) + Donation(2011) + Donation(2012) + Donation(2013)
    Total Donation = 700,000+700,000 + 756,000 + 816,480+816,480 + 881,798.40

  3. Perform the addition.

    Total Donation = $3,154,278.40

    The total amount of money donated from 2010 to 2013 is $3,154,278.40.
