"A savings account earns interest at an annual rate of 4%, compounded quarterly. If the account begins with a principal amount of $4000, what will its value be after 3 years?"

-----------> P=4000, r=0.04, n=4, t=3

A=P(1+ r/n)^(n*t)


A=4000(1+ 0.04/4)^(4*3)


A=4000(1.01)^(12)


A=4,507.30


you will have $4,507.30 in the account
