a. What is the effective annual interest rate (EAR) of the APR
of 10.5% given that it is compounded quarterly? Monthly? Annually?
Daily?
b. If you purchase a new home for $250,000 today, what is your
monthly payment if you have to pay 4.25% annual interest compounded
monthly? Assume a 30‐year fixed mortgage (360 months) and 25% down
on the home (this is of the purchase price above).
Find the effective annual interest rate (EAR) for each of the
following:
7.12 percent compounded quarterly. (Round answer to
2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.)
5.87 percent compounded monthly. (Round answer to 2
decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.)
7.07 percent compounded semiannually. (Round answer
to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.)
6.36 percent compounded daily. (Round answer to 2
decimal places, e.g. 15.25%. Use 365 days for
calculation.)
What is the difference between the annual percentage rate
(APR) and the effective annual rate (EAR)? Which rate do you
believe is more relevant for financial decisions and why?
Fund X earns 5% effective annual interest, while Fund Y earns 7%
effective annual interest (and both start off with no money in
them). You invest $500 into fund X at the end of each year for 20
years and at the end of each year, withdraw the year’s interest and
deposit it into Fund Y . Find the accumulated value in Fund Y at
the end of the 20 years. please dont use excel to solve
A deposit of X is made into a fund which pays an annual
effective interest rate of 8% for 5 years. At the same time, 2X is
deposited into another fund which pays an annual effective rate of
discount of d for 3 years. The amounts of interest earned over the
10 past years are equal for both funds. Calculate d.
Explain the difference between the Annual Percentage Rate
(APR) and the Effective Annual Percentage Rate (EAR).What would cause the EAR to be greater than the APR?When would the APR and EAR be the same?Can the APR ever be greater than the EAR?
