Principal = 5000.00 Simple interest at 6% per annum. Period = 33 years
(5000 x 6) / 100 = 300
300 x 33 years = 9,900.

---------------
You have to spec the compounding period, if any.
compounded annually:
= 5000*1.06^33
= $34202.95
--------------
Compounded monthly:
= 5000*1.005^396
= $36035.49
-------------
Compounded continuously:
= 5000*e^(0.06*33)
= $36213.72 (the max)
