    Sir the formula of EAR
    Is

    (1+nominal rate / n)^n-1

    In this question 12b.20

    They have ignored the n which is below
    Why is that sir ?

    I mean the “n” denominator is ignored

    We would only divide by 4 to get a three monthly rate if 2.1% was the annual rate.

    Since the question does not say that 2.1% is an annual rate then it must already be the 3 monthly rate and there is therefore not need to divide by 4.
