Answer 1

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\ 200\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{annually, thus once} \end{array}\dotfill &1\\ t=years\dotfill &5 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=200\left(1+\frac{0.04}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 5}\implies A=200(1.04)^5\implies A=243.33058048$
