Same problem, different numbers.

Do it like this:
=================================================
You deposit $2000 in an account earning 3% interest compounded monthly. a. How much will you have in the account in 20 years?
----
20 yrs = 240 months
3%/yr = 0.25%/month
---
FV = 2000*(1 + 0.0025)^240
= 3641.51
-----------------
b. How much interest will you earn?
FV - 2000
