Question

How do I solve this?

Answer 1

To compute the value of investment in 5 years. We use compounded annually equation. And add 2000 Yearly to the compounded value

A = P * (1 + (r/n))^(n*t)

A = total amount  = Unknown
P = principal or amount of money deposited, = 2000 usd
r = annual interest rate  = 2.25%
n = number of times compounded per year = 1
t = time in years = 5

Solution 
Year1 : A1 = 2000 * (1 +(0.025/1))^(1*1) = 2045
Year2 : A2 = (2000+2045)*(1 +(0.025/1))^(1*1) = 4136.01
Year3 : A3 = (2000+4136.01))*(1 +(0.025/1))^(1*1) = 6274.07 
Year4 : A4 = (2000+6274.07 ))*(1 +(0.025/1))^(1*1) = 8460.24 
Year5 : A5 = (2000+8460.24 ))*(1 +(0.025/1))^(1*1) = 10695.6
