    4284 persons

    Explanation:

    The new population of the town will be computed as:

    Increase in population = Current population * Increase in population %

    where

    Current population is 4200 persons

    Increase in population % is 2%

    Putting the values above:

    = 4200 persons * 2%

    = 84 persons

    So, the new population would be:

    New population = Current population + Increase in population

    = 4200 + 84 persons

    = 4284 persons

    Therefore, next year, there would be 4284 persons
