    A small doubt,

    How to convert an annual rate to monthly assuming interest is on a compounding basis?
    And how to convert a monthly rate to annual rate assuming interest is on a compounding basis?

    Suppose the monthly interest is r, and the annual interest rate is R

    Then (1+r)^12 = 1+R

    You use the same formula whether you know r and want R, or you know R and want r 🙂

    (You can find examples of this in the free lectures on interest for Paper F2)
