Answer:


A=25,000(1+(.062)/(4))^((4)t)

Explanation:

You are going to want to use the compound interest formula, which is shown below.


A=P(1+(r)/(n) )^(nt)

P = initial balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times compounded annually

t = time

Since the balance is compounded quarterly, the number
4 will be used for n.

Now lets plug in the values into the equation:


A=25,000(1+(.062)/(4))^((4)t)
