APR stands for annual percentage rate. That being the case, it does not matter whether the interest is compounded every day or every millisecond. The effect, at the end of a year is interest equal to 2.25 percent.
So, 2000 at 2.25 percent compounded, for 4 years = 2000*(1.0225)4 = 2000*1.093083 = 2186.17

If the annual equivalent rate of interest is 8.5 percent then it makes no difference how frequently it is compounded. The amount will grow to 9788.81 On the other hand 8.5 percent interest daily is equivalent to 8.7 trillion percent annually! If my calculation is correct, after 6 years the amount will have grown to 2.85*10198 (NB 10200 = googol squared).

If the 5% is yearly, and it is compounded monthly, that means that the monthly interest rate is 5/12 percent. In this case, the base factor, in the formula for compound interest, is 1 + 5/1200. After one year (12 monthly periods), the capital would be 200000 x (1 + 5/1200)12. If you want to invest the money for two years (24 months), replace the exponent 12 by 24, etc.
