A5 A 12-year loan is repaid with annual payments at the end of each year.

Find i, the (non-zero) annual effective interest rate, rounded to two decimal places after converting to a percentage.   Please solve using steps and definitions, not Excel spread sheet.

Cost of Credit

The cost of credit is an extra amount that the borrower has to pay besides the loan amount. These credit charges may vary from loan to loan. The cost of credit includes interest charges, maintenance charges, and arrangement charges. Some of the costs are mandatorily collected by the lender based on the loan amount and tenure of the loan. The cost of credit is also called finance charges of the credit.
