First account (simple interest)

Step-by-step explanation:

I = Prt = $2000·0.04·7 = $2000·0.28 = $560

The amount in the second account at the end of 7 year is ...

FV = P·(1+r)^t = $2000·1.02^7 = $2297.37

so you have earned $297.37 in interest on the second account.

$560 is more than $297, so the First Account (simple interest) earns more money.
