  $1790.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  $1625 is invested at an annual rate of 1.95% compounded quarterly for 5 years

Find:

  the ending balance

Solution:

The compound interest formula applies.

  FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt) . . . Principal P at rate r for t years, compounded n per year

  FV = $1625(1 +0.0195/4)^(4·5) = $1625(1.004875^20) ≈ $1790.99

The account ending balance would be $1790.99.
