Column A: $\(10,000\left(1+\frac{12 / 2}{100}\right)^6=10,000(1.06)^6\)$
Column B: $\(10,000\left(1+\frac{10}{100}\right)^4=10,000(1.1)^4=10,000(1.461)\)$
Hence, Column B $\(>\)$ Column A.
Thus, the correct answer is $\(B\)$.
Column B: $\(10,000\left(1+\frac{10}{100}\right)^4=10,000(1.1)^4=10,000(1.461)\)$
Hence, Column B $\(>\)$ Column A.
Thus, the correct answer is $\(B\)$.
