Answer:

A. $4955.30

Explanation:

The formula for the accumulated value at compound interest is:


A(t)=P(1+i)^t

In the given problem:

• The principal, P = $4,000

,

• Interest Rate, r = 5.5% = 0.055

,

• Time, t = 4 years

Substitute these values into the formula:


\begin{gathered} A(4)=4000(1+0.055)^4 \\ =4000(1.055)^4 \\ =\$4955.30 \end{gathered}

The amount Ario has in the account after 4 years is $4955.30.
