Step-by-step explanation:

Sum them up as geometric series.

Sum = F x (1 - R^N) / (1 - R), where F = First term, R = Common Ratio, N = Number of terms.

Sum = 600 x (1 - 1.15^5) / (1 - 1.15)

Sum = 600 x (1 - 2.0113571875) / -0.15

Sum = 600 x (-1.0113571875) / -0.15)

Sum = 600 x 6.74238125

Sum = $4,045.43
