Answer:

Travis will have $23,122.59 in his account at the end of seven years

Explanation:

Future value is the compounded value calculated using a specific time and specific rate too.

To calculate the balance after seven years use the following formula

Future value = Present value x ( 1 + periodic interest rate )^numbers of periods

Where

Future value = Balance after 7 years = ?

Periodic interest rate = 4% x 3/12 = 1%

Numbers of periods = 7 years x 12/3 = 28 periods

Placing values in the formula

Balance after 7 years = $17,500 x ( 1 + 1% )^28

Balance after 7 years = $23,122.59
