Answer 4

The problem is the 4th line. I changed the code little bit, check it

amount = int(input("Enter the investement amount:"))
years = int(input("Enter the number of years:"))
rate = int(input("Enter the rate as a %:"))
endingbalance = 0
print("%4s" % "Year", "%8s" % "Starting balance", "%6s" % "% Interest", "%7s" % "Ending balance")
for i in range(years):
interest = (amount*rate)/100
endingbalance = amount + interest
print(i, "%15d" % amount, "%10d" % interest, "%12d" % endingbalance)
amount = endingbalance
print("Ending Balance is", endingbalance)
