I\'m having trouble with a couple questions. Please show work so I can understand. Thanks!
If a bank gives you an interest rate of 6% per year compounded monthly, what is the effective rate that your account is earning per year? o 6.0% 0 6.0564% 0 6.1678% O 6.2563%Solution
EAR=(1+APR/m)^m-1
where m=compounding periods
1.Effective rate=(1+0.06/12)^12-1
=(1.005)^12-1
=6.1678%(Approx).
2.
Rate paid=(1+0.21/52)^52-1[weeks in a year =52]
=(1.004038462)^52-1
=23.31%(Approx)
