The total amount due in the future (F) for the current loan (P) with compound interest (i) is calculated through the equation,
F = P x (1 + i)^n
where n is the number of years. Substitute to the equation, the values given above,
F = ($500) x (1 + 0.04)^5 = $608.326
Thus, Jenny would pay approximately $608.326.
