Answer:

about $66,621

Step-by-step explanation:

Since its an increase in salary, we want 0.07+1 = 1.07 (if he was losing his salary, it instead would be 0.07-1, but that's not the case here)

Then we plug it in as 47,500(1.07)^x

he's expecting what would he get in his fifth year at the firm. So let's set x = 5.

47,500(1.07)^5 = $66,621.20721 or ≈ $66,621 to the nearest dollar.
