The amount of money in the account after a year can be calculated through the equation,

      F = P x (1 + i)^n

1st year:
 
      F = (£5000)(1 + 0.03)^1 = £5150

The interest earned is £150. 20% of this is £30 leaving £5120. 

2nd year:

     F = (£5120)(1.03)^1 = $5273.6

The interest earned in this year is £153.6. 20% of this is £30.72. The amount that is left in the account is $5242.88

ANSWER: $5242.88
