I don't know

amistre64 · Answer

well, they come in different flavors, so knowing which one its asking you to use would be helpful

anonymous · Answer

FV = PV(1+i)^n <- normal equation 
FV = PV(1+ (i/4))^n(4)  <- quarterly

so its
FV = 4000( 1 + 0.05/4)^1(4)
FV = 4000(1+ 0.0125)^4 
FV = 4000(1.0125)^4
FV = 4000(1.05095)  = $4203.78
