Your mother received an offer from a bank. The flier is offering your mother to open a credit card with that bank. The advertised rate on the flier is only 15%, which is considerably lower compared to other rates offered by competing banks. Then, in the fine print, it said that interest is paid monthly. Your mother asked you what that meant or what would be the effect of that if any. What would you tell her? Compute for the EFF %. How would you explain to her why there is a difference between the 15% and the rate that you computed?

you. What APR rate should you charge your customers? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your
answer to two decimal places.
