Chapter 5, Problem 53QP
Calculating EAR. A local finance company quotes an interest rate of 17.2 percent on one-year loans. So, if you borrow $25,000, the interest for the year will be $4,300. Because you must repay a total of $29,300 in one year, the finance company requires you to pay $29,300/12, or $2,441.67 per month over the next 12 months. Is the interest rate on this loan 17.2 percent? What rate would legally have to be quoted? What is the effective annual rate?
