If you would like to know how much money will you have after 4 years, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1 year: 1000 + 2% of 1000 = 1000 + 2% 1000 = 1000 + 2/100 1000 = 1000 + 20 = 1020
2 year: 1020 + 2% of 1020 = 1020 + 2% 1020 = 1020 + 2/100 1020 = 1020 + 20.4 = 1040.4
3 year: 1040.4 + 2% of 1040.4 = 1040.4 + 2%  1040.4 = 1040.4 + 2/100  1040.4 = 1040.4 + 20.808 = 1061.208
4 year: 1061.208 + 2% of 1061.208 = 1061.208 + 2%  1061.208 = 1061.208 + 2/100  1061.208 = 1061.208 + 21.22 = 1082.43

The correct result would be A: 1,082.40.
