Answer:

$ 9,304.99

Explanation:

The applicable formula is

A = P x (1 + r)^n

where A is the amount after 4 years

P is principal amount $8000

r is interest rate = 3.85% or 0.0385

n = number of periods: 4

A = $8000 x ( 1 + 0.0385) ^4

A = $8000 x (1.0385)^4

A = $8000 x 1.163123

A =$9,304.99
