Final Answer : A, Explanation :  The future value of an investment is calculated using the formula FV = PV(1 + r)^n, where PV is the present value, r is the interest rate per period, and n is the number of periods. Here, PV = $10,000, r = 15% or 0.15, and n = 2. Thus, FV = $10,000 * (1 + 0.15)^2 = $10,000 * 1.3225 = $13,225.
