like a first step calcule the 4% interest rate of $5000 for 1 year 
step by step how much will be this interest after 7 years ?

dont forget after every year this 5000 will increase by 4% 
but attention please after second year this 4% will be of (5000 +4% of the first year ) 
and so in this way after 7 years
