Solution

To solve this problem, we can use the formula for compound interest, which is:

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

Where:

  • A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.
  • P is the principal amount (the initial amount of money).
  • r is the annual interest rate (in decimal form, so 4% becomes 0.04).
  • n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.
  • t is the time the money is invested for in years.

In this case, P = $4000, r = 0.04, n = 4 (since the interest is compounded quarterly), and t = 6.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

A = 4000 (1 + 0.04/4)^(4*6)

Now, we just need to do the math:

A = 4000 (1 + 0.01)^(24) A = 4000 (1.01)^24 A = 4000 * 1.26973 A = $5078.92

So, Shen will have $5078.92 in the account after 6 years.
