John's effective annual rate is about
(1 +.0576/4)^4 -1 ≈ 5.8856%

72/5.8856 = 12.23 years
John's balance will be $4500 in 1989.

Since you're only concerned with the year (not the month), you don't actually need to determine the effective annual rate. The given rate of 5.76% will tell you 72/5.76 = 12.5 years. The actual doubling time is closer to 12.12 years, so using the effective rate gives results that are closer, but "good enough" is good enough in this case.
