At the end of the first year, the balance in the account is: 5000(1+.0638). At the end of the second year, the balance in the account is: 5000(1+.0638)(1+.0638). At the end of the third year, the balance in the account is: 5000(1+.0638)(1+.0638)(1+.0638). At the end of the t year, the balance in the account is: 5000(1+.0638)^t.
