$39,230.35

Explanation:

Balance = $12,500

Rate of Interest = 21%

Duration to repay = 6 years

Future pending amount =[12,500 * (1 + 0.21)^6]

Future pending amount = 39,230.35

Thus, Kathy have to repay $39,230.35 at the end of 6 years.

Keeping extra money in your account reduce the probability that customers default on loans.
