    An Investment WYE offers one interest payment of 20% at the end of its 4 year cycle.
    What is the annual effective interest rate offered by the investment

    if i use the effective annual interest formula r=(1+i/n)-1
    the answer came out to be 5%
    while the bpp answer shows 4.66%

    i couldn’t understand there solution.can u plz explain it how to solve this.

    You are using a wrong formula!!

    (1+r)^4 = 1.20

    So 1 + r = 1.0466

    r = 0.0466

    Have you watched my free lectures on interest?
