Solution

To calculate the amount after 4 years with a quarterly compounded interest rate, we can use the formula for compound interest:

A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

where:

  • A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.
  • P is the principal amount (the initial amount of money).
  • r is the annual interest rate (in decimal).
  • n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.
  • t is the time the money is invested for in years.

Given in the problem: P = $200 r = 5% = 0.05 (in decimal) n = 4 (since interest is compounded quarterly) t = 4 years

Substituting these values into the formula:

A = 200 (1 + 0.05/4)^(4*4) A = 200 (1 + 0.0125)^(16) A = 200 * 1.0125^16 A = 200 * 1.217248169

So, the amount after 4 years will be approximately $243.45.
