Each year we add 4.5% interest.
4.5% as a decimal is 0.045.
We multiply by 1.045 to add this interest.
(not 0.045, this would just be the interest and wouldn't keep the whole)
To start: $1,000
Multiply by 1.045 for the first year.
Now we have $1,045.
Multiply by 1.045 again for the second year.
Now we're at 1092.025.
We need to round up to the nearest cent...$1,092.03
