Interest compounded annually is calculated by the following formula:

I = P x (1+r)^t - P

where I is the amount of interest, P is the principal investment amount, r is the annual interest rate expressed as a decimal, and t (for time) is the number of years. If "- P" is removed from the right hand side, then you get the new total amount, instead of just the interest paid.

For your problem,

I = $200 x (1 + 0.04)^6 - $200 = $200 x 1.2653 - $200 = $253.06 - $200 = $53.06
