Please may you elaborate this question and answer a little for me. What is the effective annual rate of interest of 2.1% compounded every three month? Answer is 8.67%
My take on this question was to convert nominal rate (2.1%) to effective annual rate by applying this formula (1 + i/m) ^ m – 1. Where ‘m’ is the number of compound periods ‘i’ is the interest rate Applying this formula my answer isn`t correct.
If there is interest of 2.1% every 3 months, then the effective annual rate ls:
1.021^4 – 1 = 0.0867 (or. 8.67%)
