y=500(.96)^5

y=ab^x

a will always be the starting number
b will always be a percent turned to a decimal
x will always be the time 

y=500(.96)^5

The answer is around $400

500-400= 100

Answer is C
Interest = P * R * T / 100
I = 500 * 4 * 5 / 100
I = 10,000 /100
I = 100

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!
