Annual percentage rate

The Annual percentage rate is the annualized value of the periodic rate. In this case 1.25% is the rate per quarter. There are 4 quarters in a year. So the Annual percentage rate= Quarterly rate*4

= 1.25%*4= 5%. It is the rate of interest without considering the effects of compounding.

The discount rate is the rate used to bring a future value of money to its present value.

The compound interest rate is the rate charged on interest earned. It is the rate at which the interest is compounded.

The effective annual rate is the real return after taking into account the effects of compounding.
