The future value is computed as shown below:

= Present value x (1 + interest rate) time period

= $ 5,900 x (1 + 0.05 / 4) 8 x 4 (Since the interest is compounded quarterly, hence interest rate is divided by 4 and time period is multiplied by 4)

= $ 5,900 x 1.012532

= $ 5,900 x 1.488130509

= $ 8,779.97
