How do i find out the APY for this problem attached? thank yoU!

A bank features a savings account that has an annual percentage rate of \( r = 4.2\% \) with interest compounded quarterly. Erin deposits $10,500 into the account.

The account balance can be modeled by the exponential formula:

\[
A(t) = a \left(1 + \frac{r}{k}\right)^{kt}
\]

where \( A \) is account value after \( t \) years, \( a \) is the principal (starting amount), \( r \) is the annual percentage rate, \( k \) is the number of times each year that the interest is compounded.

**(A) What values should be used for \( a \), \( r \), and \( k \)?**

- \( a = 10500 \)
- \( r = 0.042 \)
- \( k = 4 \)

**(B) How much money will Erin have in the account in 9 years?**

- Amount = $15,293. 

Round answer to the nearest penny.

**(C) What is the annual percentage yield (APY) for the savings account?** (The APY is the actual or effective annual percentage rate which includes all compounding in the year).

\[
APY = 1.0105\% 
\]

Round answer to 3 decimal places.
