    A bank had offered to lend AGD Co $320000 for a period of five years at a before-tax rate of 10% per year with Interest payable every six months.
    Required:
    Caculate the annual percentage rate implied by the banks offer to lend at 10% per year with interest payable every six months. (Come from passed paper12/05)
    I think APR?10? and EAR=(1+10%/2)²?1 but the answer told me APR=(1+10%/2)²?1
    I feel very confused,am lright or the answer is right?
    Thanks a lot!!!

    The answer is correct.

    The APR is the effective annual rate.
