Since your compounding is annual, we can use the slightly simplified formula
A = Ao(1+r)t
Where A is the final amount, Ao is the original amount, and t is time in years.
Plug in the appropriate values:
A = 2000(1 + 0.18)3
A = 2000 ( 1.18)3
Use your calculator to arrive at
A = 3286.064, which would round to $3,286.06
Best wishes!
