Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Cost of the tuition at a certain college last year = US$ 26,373

Increase rate this year = 5.4% = 0.054

2. How much is this year's tuition?

This year's tuition = Last year's tuition * (1 + Increase rate)

This year's tuition = 26,373 * (1 + 0.054)

This year's tuition = 26,373 * (1.054) = 27,797 (Rounding to the next whole)

This year's tuition is US$ 27,797
