A local finance company quotes a 14 percent interest rate on one-year loans. So, if you borrow RM20,000, the interest for the year will be RM2,800. Because you must repay a total of RM22,800 in one year, the finance company requires you to pay RM22,800/12, or RM1,900, per month over the next 12 months. Calculate the effective annual rate.
