Find the EAR in each of the following cases (Use 365 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.): 9%

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the effective annual rate in each of the following cases are

1.

Effective annual rate = [(1+annual percentage rate ÷ period)^period]- 1

= (1 +0 .09 ÷ 4)^4 - 1

= 9.31%

2.

Effective annual rate = [(1+annual percentage rate ÷ period)^period]- 1

= (1 + 0.16  ÷  12)^12-1

= 17.23%

3.

Effective annual rate = [(1+annual percentage rate ÷ period)^period]- 1

= (1 + 0.12 ÷ 365)^365-1

= 12.75%

4 .

Effective annual rate = [(e)^Annual percentage rate]-1

e=2.71828

So,

=[(2.71828)^0.11]-1

= 11.63%
