    To calculate the answer, remember that:

    Starting Amount (1 + Growth Rate) Number of Years = Ending Amount

    So under the various scenarios in the question we have:

    $5,000 (1 +.02) 20 = $5,000 (1.49) = $7,450

    $5,000 (1 +.02) 40 = $5,000 (2.20) = $11,000

    $5,000 (1 +.04) 40 = $5,000 (4.80) = $24,000

    $5,000 (1 +.06) 40 = $5,000 (10.29) = $51,450
