The first year would be $13,500. The second year would be $13,900. The third year would be $14,300. Finally, the forth year would be $14,700. So the answer is $56,300 by the time you graduate collage

$56,400. 13,500+13,500+400=2 years. Ans. + 13,500+800= 3 years. Ans. +13,500+1,200= 4 years(56,400)
