    Shw would have accumulated $5,985.09

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    The bank was paying a nominal interest rate of 9.8% compounded quarterly.

    Heather deposit $1,700 at her local bank.

    Number of years = 13 years

    First, we need to calculate the quarterly interest rate:

    i = 0.098/4 = 0.0245

    Now, using the following formula we can calculate the final value:

    FV = PV * (1+i) ^n

    FV = 1,700 * (1+0.0245) ^ (13*4) = $5,985.09
